Title: GA-Z77 UP5 TH (rev 1.0) SPDIF Optical output NOT WORKING
Post by: lyt108 on January 01, 2013, 06:33:05 pm

I am using the GA-z77 UP5 TH (rev 1.0)   with windows 7 64 bit

Just built a new machine with a 3770k, all quality components.  Everything is working perfectly except....

The digital audio does not work from the optical SPDIF port.   I had it on, but it cuts out and cannot be turned back on.   I see the Red color in the cable so I know there is signal, and i see the level meters in windows and the realtek app moving but no sound.  

Previously, I was an audio engineer, I KNOW very well how to set up audio on a computer.  I used to do digital recording for over 10 years.

What is the problem and is it a known issue?

So basically i just spent $229, and i need to know if I should RMA now.
