Part of the feature set of your new Sapphire graphics board is that it has an HD Audio Controller built
into the board to allow you to easily and seamlessly output both video and audio via an HDMI output

using the Active DVI-HDMI converter may have been included in the box.
For this reason, part of the driver installation routine also installs the appropriate driver for the HD
Audio Controller. The behaviour of the installation of this driver means that it automatically sets the
default audio device to be the HD Audio Controller on the graphics board. Consequently, audio will
no longer be routed to the normal speaker output via your previous add in sound card leading you to
believe that your audio has somehow been ‘broken’ by the driver installation.

This is not the case. If you intend to use the HDMI output as your primary output and want the audio
routed along the HDMI cable then you do not need to do anything further. Once you connect your
HDMI display you will find the audio is also present. If you do not intend to use HDMI or only want the
video to be routed via HDMI and the audio to be routed via your existing sound card output then you
need to change the default audio device from the Windows XP Control Panel.
