Sound Blaster X-FI Titanium HD Headphone / Speaker problem.

Its A known Problem.

dont worry,there nothing wrong with your card nor you software.

creative released new drivers a couple days ago which sadly dont fixed that problem but the sound is improved in my opnion.

if you cant find the drivers let me know and I'll help you with it.

you can connect only the speakers or the headphones but not both.

I have the same card, and I was quite disappointed when i realized there was no good way of switching from speakers to headphones. I have a y-splitter coming out of the headphone jack going to my receiver and to my headphones. 

For now, when I don't want to listen on my stereo i just turn it off. Soon ill get some powered monitors and then I think ill need a better way of switching, because I don't think id like to reach behind my  monitors and turn them all multiple times a day.

yes...:)

I think the y-splitter does affect the sound quality. When I'm using my stereo I unplug my headphones and I can hear my speakers get slightly louder. So I think the output is weakened with a splitter.

I just took the splitter off and tomorrow i am going to get a longer RCA cable to plug into my stereo and have just my headphones in the line out of my sound card. Ill see how that works out.

EDIT: scratch that idea, it looks like sound will not come out of the RCA's while something is in the headphone jack. I wonder if Creative realizes that when this card is installed the headphone jack is at the back of the computer and therefore hard to get to. It would be nice if both outputs would work at the same time. I guess I have to keep using the splitter after all. 

PS I'm kinda mad that i paid so much money for this card. I'm very happy with the sound but I just want to be able to switch from headphones to loudspeakers without added equipment. Does anybody know if xonar cards are like this?
