Hi all, I seem to have resolved my problem with my audio. I have downloaded the application QAS mixer and deselected Audigy Analog/Digital Audio Pack. This immediately resulted in starting to play the sound that I had going in the background. Not sure as to what triggered this setting to become selected.
