Here's one more observation that I am having a tough time understanding -I have a soundcard installed and working properly, but I do not have any devices listed in the "Sounds and Audio Devices", obviously
because I have selected "Do not use audio features" for that device/soundcard. So there is no Window's or the soundcard's mixer/panel available, and any application like WMP, Messenger, windows sounds etc. cannot see this device and wont play.
All that is fine and as expected.However, fb2k can play just fine via DirectSound. I was expecting it to play KS but not DS. At this point how is KS different (or better) than DS ? Is the flow of data through the layers (mixers, drivers) any different between KS and DS, in this situation ?
