The problem is that I'm getting nothing at all on playback. My surround 
system is silent during boot, then just as it starts to boot, the 
speakers start to make obscene noises. Replacing that system with a pci 
sound card should do the trick. I unplugged the USB mike with mike and 
that didn't reduce the sound. Thanks! Ric
