Alright here it goes, and bear with me its a strange problem! I had my 5.1 set working perfectly before, using Realtek HD audio drivers that i got with my mobo. Yesterday my neigbour came by to complain about sound, so i had to plug in my headphones. Today i wanted to switch back to my 5.1 set so i put the cables back in. Turns out they now dont work in 5.1 anymore. I have 3 wires, 1 for the front, 1 for the back and 1 for the mid/sub. Everytime i plug the third wire in that set doesnt work. So if i start with my front wire, they work. I then plug my back wire in and they work as well, then i plug the mid/sub wire in and they dont work. When i switch it around and start with my mid/sub wire they work, then i plug my back in and they work after which i plug my front in and they dont work. You get the idea :p I'm lost for words and I really dont know what the problem might be. Ive already reinstalled the drivers but that didnt do anything :( So if anyone has any idea what it might be i'll be forever in your debt!

Alright its working now. After restart nr 3, and doing the exact same thing 3 times it now decided to work. All i did was plug it out and in again, but now it suddenly worked. Never touched those wires again thank you very much, my neigbour can go suck it.
