Curious to know if there is a newer/better driver sitting around for this thing. It's old, I know, and I would just get a Creative Live USB audio box, but I don't have the money for it right now.
The reason I am asking is because the driver I have for Leopard is OLD. 10.5 OLD. I cannot change the volume through software, as it's always at 50% volume. The only way I can change it is via my speakers' wired remote/headphone jack, and because it's at 50% volume, turning it loud distorts music. I also cannot change the balance via software at all, and the balance is still off a bit (not 50/50 as it should be, more like 55/60 for left/right respectively), although it's way better than the vanilla AC97 driver from Apple that's near 10/90 balance...
Can any one lend a helping hand?
