Sony IEEE 1394 Audio Device Does Not Work When You Try to Play Back Full-Duplex Transmission (294482)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
  • Microsoft Windows XP Professional
This article was previously published under Q294482

SYMPTOMS

When you use a Sony Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1394 audio device to play back full-duplex transmission or to perform a sound test that checks full-duplex transmission, the audio playback or the test program may stop responding.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur because the Sony IEEE 1394 audio device uses a single first-in, first-out (FIFO) port, which can be used for capturing or rendering but not for full-duplex transmission.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, contact Sony for an updated driver that supports full-duplex transmission to the FIFO port.
