When i go on ANYTHING else, the sound is glitched or when i hear a song i dont hear the voice. plz help.. :cry:

Are you saying the test tones work OK on both the speakers and headphones, but other sound on both the headphones and speakers bad?

Please clarify.

Also, please fill in the "My System Spec's". It helps us to try and help you. And are you on Windows 8 or Windows 8.1?

Are you plugging your headphones into the "speaker jack (line-out)"or a "USB" port?

As previously asked, what type of headphones? Do you have one with a 1/8" stereo plug or do they connect via USB?

Do you have another PC (or a friend) that you can try that headset on to see how it works. Or a different headphone to try on this PC.

You still have never filled in the "My System Spec's" so we have no idea what type of PC you have.

If this is a desktop, plug the headset into the rear green speaker jack and see if the headphones work OK or not.

I can't get anywhere with the ASUS site, to get the audio specs. However they note THX and EAX which are software enhancements to the basic audio. One of those may be causing the problems. Check the configuration of these programs.

It's the headphone port (the hole beside the mic hole) because if your built in laptop speakers work and the multiple headphones don't work then it's the port. I would recommend cleaning the port (blowing it out, getting a thin brush, etc.)

Shadow Tech, the headphone jack works as he reported he hears the test tones.

Do you have the Speakers set as "Stereo"? If they are set to 5.1, 7.1, etc that could be the problem.
