Aptiva - 2163/2164 Considerations - Sound Recorder error in Finnish preload
Applicable to: Finland
Description:
No playback from Sound Recorder.
Models affected:
2163 and 2164 in Finland.
How to duplicate:
Open Sound Recorder
Record midi output and save to file
Playback file, only white noise
Explanation:
The latest version of the ESS audio driver, v3015ML2, permanently mutes the Wave signal from the Record input. This was required because a Windows bug keeps this input from being changed from mute to un-mute. Thus when ViaVoice tries to mute all devices except for the microphone, the wave devices can't be muted. This caused ViaVoice to have problems (Biltmore V66M, I-0114).
The solution was to have the driver permently mute the wave input. This also affects the ability to record midi files as the SW wavetable converts the midi into a wave output. This is a known limitation.
Workaround:
If the ViaVoice issue is not a concern, un-mute the wave input. Otherwise, none.
