From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yo dude I have a soundblasterx g6 too, I had this problem too where the sound card disconnected and reconnected as an output devices everytime, I have resolved the problem by changing this setting in the soundblaster commander under windows.
There is no equivalent driver for linux, at least for what I know, but I'm trying my best to resolve the issue by reverse engineering it.
For the mic problem I use a bash script on startup that change the mic to the one of the sound card.
Okay, i had to try it today... Unfortunatley, it was set to "PC/Mac" already. I have factory reset the card and tried again. Have you enabled the sbx profile, or do you use direcr sound mode?
No I don't have direct mode enabled because if you do so the mic doesn't work (on windows too), and I don't have any sbx profile enabled.
Ahh... that was the reason
Thank you! Will try this tomorrow <3
No problem!
