I was "aiming" with GPU card to see which PCI slot covers to remove when i bumped the mobo and my speakers let out a "whump!" like they where being plugged-in into a live audio system. Doh! forgot to turn off the power supply and unplug. Did that and fired it back up with all systems nominal except for a high pitched whining from my speakers as soon as Windows 7 log-in screen prompts. Though some sound can barely whisper through if all volume is maxed out.
Tried theses with no differing results:
Checked with alternate sound system
Tried all other audio jacks
Reinstalled Audio drivers
Swapped out GPU and crossfire to non and vise versa
Tried some other things as well:
Hooked up optical digital output up to my Samsung HT-D5300 this works, total crap, sound is garbled (maybe dolby issue or lack of feature altogether)
HDMI output on GPU to TV w/speakers: Audio works (whew!)

1. What do you think? Any other steps I can take? (other than ALWAYS unplug the psu )
2. Sound card options?
P.S. this is my 1st post after months of viewing, this site is awesome.
