I've been using this card for the last few months, a Sound Blaster Z that worked fine up until maybe half an hour ago when it suddenly stopped working. I made no changes to the system and did not update any drivers. It just stopped producing sound when set to 5.1, which it has been this entire time and worked fine. If I switch it to headphone mode it works, if I switch it to Stereo Direct it works. If I set it to 5.1 or Stereo it does not produce any sound at all from any speakers.
Reinstalling the latest drivers did not work. Reinstalling the SBZ_CD_LD_1_00_16 drivers did not work. Changing the sound format(to 16 bit 96000Hz, 16 Bit 41000Hz, or 24 bit 96000Hz) did not work. Windows 8.1 troubleshooter said my volume was too low, but 100% volume produces no sound, and it detects no other problems(thanks, Win8.1 troubleshooter).
I'm at a loss for what else to try that might resolve this issue. Please help if you can.
