Hello.
I have two soundcards in my computer. I need quake3 to use the different card i use for playing music. In control panel I made Realtek HD card enabled for default in sound applications and I want Q3 to choose another (SB Live) card for playback. Is there any cvar to change default soundcard for quake?

like /s_card 0, /s_card 1 ?

Or any other way?

I guess no...

But to make it easy, go in quake, open console, type /s_ and than press TAB, and voila, u have every soundcommand, which excists in q3.

make the dafault soundcard which you want to use for quake and configure music programs (for example winamp) for using second soundcard
