[RWP] Interesting problem recording with Reaper

Sat Dec 3 21:21:24 EST 2011

I think I have one of those Realtec cards in my windows 7 machine as well. 
I hate jack sensing.  Very annoying.
when I first got this computer, I didn't realize it was set up for 5.1 
sound.  I just plugged a stereo pair into one of the outputs, hoping to hear 
jaws speech, and couldn't figure out why It would not speak.
come to find out, it refused to send audio out that pair because I didn't 
have the other pair plugged in.
Sorry, I'm from the old school.  If I tell you to send a signal out that 
port, then  that's what I want you to do, no matter whether I have anything 
plugged into it or not.
