Vista - audio problem

i never had audio problems.

recently, i have a problem with the sound of my pc: i hear everything but
the balance of the different sounds is incorrect. when i play music, the
volume of the voice is too low. the overall sound is a bit metallic. when I
play a movie, the sound of the voices is too low compared to the surround
noise.

I already tried to adapt the volume, but it did not work out.

anny suggestions?

Right-click the Sound icon in the notification area, and choose Playback
Devices. Double-click Speakers, and on the Speakers Properties window,
choose the Enhancements tab. Is there a check next to Voice Cancellation?
If so, or if there is a check next to any other sound effect, try checking
"Disable all sound effects" (Apply, OK).
