I believe that I have squashed the sound in VC bug.Well, it is not really a bug at all. I have Logitech 5.1 speakers, and in Windows XP-> Sounds and Audio Devices-> Speakers Settings-> Advanced had 5.1 set as the Setup as 5.1. Well, dummy me is not using the surround speakers because I don't have a place to put them behind my chair. I am using the RF, LF, Center, and Sub. So, incomplete sound while panning in the VC. Changed it to Desktop Stereo or Stereo Headphones and it works perfectly.Problem solved.
