3D sound

[A-Ganger]

My computer has the Realtek HD Audio updated driver 6.0.1.8036

When I launch the game, all the 3D sounds are disabled and I get a warning msg;

Sound Card Reporting no 3D Hardware Buffers. Reccomend Updating Drivers
Could not create hardware 3D sound. Performance degradation possible.
Created 6 3D Buffers, Recommend 4 minimum Buffers
Created 10 Special Effect Buffers. Recommend 4 minimum Buffers.
Created 10 Voice Buffers. Recommend 10 minimum Buffers.

Am I really missing anything "sound wise" with this issue?

Does anything sound off or seem like it's missing? I notice that most of the minimum numbers are below your actual numbers.

Nothing seems to be off sound wise.

I did resolve the problem with the error msg popup!
On my computer I keep No sounds selected instead of windows default in the Personalization section.

When I switched it to Windows default the error msg popup went away.

Might be worth turning on D3D sound emulators like Creative ALchemy or Asus GX.
