Hello,
I just installed a creative 5.1 channel soundblaster soundcard. The problem is that when I connect it up to my 5.1 sound system, the subwoofer is not working. Everything else is working, including the centre speaker which uses the same jack as the subwoofer.

Here are the details:
Sound card: Creative SoundBlaster 5.1 It has 4 jacks, 3 is for output (Front, Rear, Centre/Sub) and the other one is for line in and microphone.

Sound System: iBall booster 5.1

i have checked all the connection

I tested the speakers with a 5.1 dvd player. Everything is working, including the subwoofer.

I dont know why the subwoofer is not working when I connect it to the sound card.

Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 3.0

Lol faulty soundcard in that case? xDDD
the sub woofer's mixer/usual mixer checks what to consider to be and not to be played by the sub-woofer, so check the sub-woofer settings @ the back of it, maybe u have Sub volume @ some remote control or something like so, OR at the rear of it... anyway it has nothing to do with the sound card in my opinion
