I bought this card so that I could use the digital input (internal CD header) and output on this card with Sound Forge. But when I complete the audio settings and try to arm for recording, I get an error saying that "One or more audio playback devices do not support the current sample rate and/or bit depth". When I click the Details button, it says that my device doesn't support 16-bit 44.1khz sample rate (standard cd quality?). And when I change the recording sample rate in Windows Sound advanced settings for my card, Sound Forge then says the new rate isn't supported. And so on. These are analogue sampling rates. I only want to use digital recording and playback.
To further complicate matters, Audacity records at any sample rate I set, with no issues.
It seems I'm not the only one having these issues with various Soundblaster cards. Are there any fixes or workarounds for this issue?
