Far Cry sound problem

[thejosher50@mail]

I have the soundblaster audigy 2 zs and logitech z-680 speakers. When I go out of far cry and then go back in the center channle is not outputting any sound. then i have to set the speaker setting, in the game, to stereo and then exit. then i have to go back into the game, set the speaker setting to surround and then exit again. then i look at my speaker setting in the surround mixer for creative and they default to stereo speakers. so then, i have to change that setting back to 5.1 and then go back into the game. then it works. i have the most recent updates for the sound card. has anyone else had this problem? or am i the lucky one to have it first?
