I am just talking about native OpenAL games such as Lord of the Rings Online. If I run in Hardware audio mode, then there is no sound. If I switch over to Software audio mode, then there is sound. Checking/unchecking EAX in game does not seem to have any effect. The Hardware/software mode and EAX settings are all in game in the config panel.
I'm pretty sure I have read elsewhere too that the Auzentech Prelude X-Fi will not support hardware acceleration in games out through the optical/coax SPDIF. Auzen themselves told me I would have to turn on Dolby Digital Live.
It does sound like Creative Labs' own X-Fi cards do not have this problem. I may just try out the Titanium and take it back if it does not work.
I have NO problems getting bit perfect audio to my DAC via Foobar w/WASAPI. My problem is strictly with *hardware accelerated* audio in games not working.
