I’m struggling to get fs2crew to play on my headset with all other sounds coming from the normal speakers. I’m using a simple headset with boom mic with two plugs, one for the mic and one for the speakers.

 

Setup is as follows:

Win 7 64

Creatice SB X-Fi sound card

Realtek HD Audio integrated on motherboard

 

All drivers are up to date and I have a fresh install of FSX with PMDG and FS2Crew. I can set up the headset within in windows sound panel and the Realtek panel, both show the mic working and sound comes out of the headset when I click on the test button. The mic works fine but I am not able to get the crew sounds on the headset. I have selected “Realtek HD Audio Speakers in the FS2Crew cfg panel and nothing changes. Selecting HS on the main panel makes no difference. No matter what the setting it always plays on the main speakers. I did notice before the fresh install that ATIS reports would come through the headset but not crew sounds.

 

Can anyone help, I don’t want to have to only use the headset.

go to the FSX settings: select sound then set sounds to your speakers and set voice to your USB media audio. Set usb audio in the fs2crew CFG and select the HS checkbox.

That should do it.

Don , you are the man...I've been pulling my hair out, this should be in the FS2Crew manual

I just added that to the FS2Crew on-line manual.

 

Thanks for sharing that info.
