Hey guys lately i had sound isues in windows 8.1. Almost all the videoes i watch with VLC have very low sound on the voices. When i use my headset everything works fine. But as soon i use my speakers everything is weird other sounds are load and voices are low and it's hard to hear what they say in the movie. Help on how to fix this problem is very apreciated. PS this problem is only when i watch some movies speakers works normale when i watch youtube videoes or play music but sound also been weird somthimes when i play games. tryd using another movie player and same isue so think it is a windows fail.

Try checking if the speaker is plugged in properly, and then go to the bottom right corner, click the sound icon, and then click mixer. Try playing around with that and see if it helps.

sounds to me like 5.1 sound is trying to be played through your stereo headset.

You lose the center channel which contains most of the voice dialog.

 

in the VLC settings you can configure what kind of device you are using, and what kind of speaker setup you have. You can also do the same in the windows drivers...i think?
