I'm after a USB powered Sound Card that fully recovers from Sleep without any issues. I currently have a G4 and a Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 NX which max's out on the volume when ever resuming as well as CF not recognising the card until a restart of CF.

Thanks.
Sorry I missed this question, sometimes I get no emails saying someone has responded. When you talk about accessing the radio, do you mean XM and HD? Yes they only play through the front 2 speakers. I thought the sound was bad in general, it didnt sound high quality, and alot of interference from nearby devices could be heard over the speakers, unless remotely placed. There was no pop, but thats because I use AMP_CTRL which turns the amps on after everything has loaded and then turns the amps off before shutdown. If you really want a good card, I recommend finding a Sound Blaster Live 24bit USB card, I dont think they make it anymore but it seems to be the most compatiable. Only draw back is that it only has one line in and one mic in and you can only use one or the other. Mitch created a line selector which eleminates not having enough line in ports.

In the end, avoid the Turtle Beach SRM, its so cr@ppy.
