Vista - Headphones setting? Where is it? Please implement!

Why isn't there a headphones setting like XP has? Stereo, Quad, 5.1 and 7.1
are there but no Headphones? CSS doesn't allow me to choose headphones in
game and resets itself to Stereo. I have an X-fi and have the Audio HQ
installed and I have it set to Headphones but CSS isn't as distinctive as it
was in XP. I find it harder now to pin point enemy location. In XP it was a
lot more distinctive. BTW, I'm using Vista now because I got fed up with the
datacache.dll error in Source games.

Nobody has anything to say? No comments?

ever since my daughter loaded oovoo, we have had weird problems with the sound. Plug in headphones and it comes thru speakers and headphones. Other times it comes thru only the speakers. I right click on the speaker icon in the task bar and then click on playback devices and sometimes it shows speakers and headphones and other times it shows one or the other. You never know. If it shows the one I am hoping for, I click on it to test it. After that I save it and then restart the browser and it works. If I take my head phones out and then plug them back in, it comes thru the speakers and I have to go thru the whole process all over again. This time there is no headphones icon in the playback devices so I will restart the PC and try again and hope for the best.
No idea why this is happening. It was fine before oovoo.

1 , Temporarily ? uninstall oovoo and see if they work OR
2 , get a cheap comp for your daughter .

Yes, I will likely try that soon. She's been chatting with her fiance and I have been asking them to try Gmail chat instead to see if it makes a difference. I just threw oovoo out there to see if anyone had similar experience.
