Hi guys,

I have a very weird sound problem. I have a Mid 2011 iMac 27'' and I'm using a Sound Blaster External 24 Live sound card. Everything was working fine until I installed Garage Band. Since then no music plays through the Sound Blaster. System sounds play but no music or youtube videos. Video keeps loading until I switch to internal sound.

I changed on MIDI Setup all the possible settings for hz and bit but nothing makes it work. Any suggestions?
[doublepost=1497421611][/doublepost]Ok I was wrong about the system sounds. They were playing through the internal speakers. When I chose the usb sound card as default for system they don't play anymore. When I chose 16 bit the youtube video and itunes resume play but no sound comes out.
[doublepost=1497421776][/doublepost]All except master are greyed out.
[doublepost=1497423464][/doublepost]Ok problem solved. I deleted both files inside /Library/Preferences/Audio and after reboot sound came back. :)
