Recently, I've run into some odd issues when playing sound through my desktop. Whatever I want to play does come out of the speakers, but at a barely audible volume and is scratchy and distorted. I know the speakers are in working order, because oddly enough when I plug my guitar into my line-in, it sounds just fine. It's not just my speakers anyway - I get the same low scratchy sound when I plug in my headphones.
This is a strangely recent problem. I played guitar using my desktop speakers (like I've done on a nearly daily basis for several months - I don't think it had anything do do with it) and when I was done, my sound seemed to be stuck like this - non-line-in anyway.
I have Logitech 5.1 speakers.
I'm using the on-board 5.1 audio (ASUS A8N-E Motherboard).
The drivers are up to date (Realtek AC'97 Audio)
I've exhausted everything I could think of, so I thought I'd come here and find someone a little more knowledgeable in audio hardware.
EDIT: Seems like strictly a hardware problem now. I dual-boot this machine with Ubuntu Linux and I get the same problem there. Is there a chance that I fried my onboard sound somehow?
