spot view sound problem

[karbil 0]

I am running FSX with Acceleration. Everything was going great. Now, all of a sudden when in spot view, the exterior sound is almost not audible unless I turn my sound all the way up; but the interior sound,like flaps, is very loud unless I turn the sound down to where I can not hear the engine sound. I have been running all versions of FS for years and I have never had this problem. What gives????

Hit the "Q" button on the keyboard twice and see if it clears.. if not enter the SOUND SETTINGS and confirm the sliders are not out of whack

IMHO the sounds in FSX are pathetic.I have the same problem and its only FSX that has made them.No wonder people want to stay with FS9.

Thanks for the responses but "duh to me", there was no problem with FSX;but there was with my over-all speaker system. Somehow all of the settings internally went haywire as shown when I ran Creative's diagnostics. Sooo, I shut everything down,disconnected my speaker system,re-connected,restarted,ran the diagnostics again and "presto", all is working great!! I hope this is of help to others. B.K.
