If I play with headphones on, when my character doesn't happen to have an ear directly facing the speaker, my sound is very quiet, basically meaning I can't play with headphones on. I tried setting my soundcard/speakers to "headphones" but it didn't seem to make any difference. Any ideas?

There is a checkbox in Dragon Age to "Force Stereo Sound (for Headphone use)". They should add it in ME2 too!

I'd approve that checkbox!

The game should be taking the setting for whether to run in Stereo or Surround from your OS, so if you adjust your settings in Windows you should have that change reflected in-game.

Yeah I tried that and no luck. I had the same problem with ME1 as well.

hmm... It sounds like sound calls aren't functioning for you as they should.

ME1, I believe used OpenAL, unsure if ME2 does the same, however you could try manually updating the OpenAL runtime/drivers. http://connect.creat...ads/oalinst.zip

The system we use in ME2 is a different one than OpenAL/ISACT (which is what we used in ME1)



The system we use produces a single multichannel DirectSound voice for its audio output, and that should be 2.0 or 5.1 depending on the configuration of the PC.



This should work almost universally except for the rare audio cards that do not have DirectSound drivers (some pro-audio cards for example)
