My Computer speakers stop working when i installed magicjack

Post by moorreese »

I installed the magicjack on my computer today and my computer speakers stopped working. Whats even more strange is that i when im on the phone using the magicjack, i can hear whats supposed to be coming through the speakers; clicks of the mouse, audio from a youtube video etc. I can hear these sounds in my phone headset instead of through my computer speakers. How do i correct this?

USB AUDIO Device is the only option listed on both of these options. I unplugged my magicjack and now these boxes are greyed out.

If this happens again, just try reinstalling your audio drivers.

I have a number of audio things going on and surprising (knocking on wood) that they don't conflict.

The only issue I had was a known issue regarding MusicMatch and MJ not getting along for some reason. Uninstalled MusicMatch (really old software, no longer supported) and MJ worked fine.
