Anyone else using the (otherwise excellent) Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card?
My sound cuts out after a few minutes, with the exception of quiet wind. No UI sounds, no tippy-tappy-typey, nada. I've checked dxdiag - which is happy as can be, I've updated the Santa Cruz drivers to the latest WinXP approved... and I'm gutted that I'm deaf in SL.
For me the major pisser is that I renounced Creative! cards for good after one too many BSoDs in AC2, directly attributable to yet another pisspoor SoundBlaster, and the Turtle Beach card has been swimming fine since then... until now. <sob>.
Any advice (or instructions on diagnostics to provide) would be much appreciated.
Tech specs:
Athlon 2100+
1Gb RAM
GeForce 3
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz (drivers: 4161)
DirectX 9.0a
WinXP sp1

My Avatar still goes deaf after a hard-to-predict-but-always-short time, except for the gentle, but persistent, whistle of wind. What debug information can I provide to help get this sorted? It's world-breakingly distressing, really.
Only changes since tech. info above were the recent client patch (reinstall) and an update to DX9.0b.

My advice is to read the Knowledge Base or whatever its called, I remember reading about something like this many months back in there.

Yep. Did that. Nothing applied.
Submitting new questions to the Knowledge Base auto-generates a mendacious email along the lines of "expect a further response in <24 hours". Pfft.
