Win8, Asus Xonar sound card and UX1. 1) Setup Guitar, phones out and POD farm - Everything works fine. Drivers are all happy.
2) Analog Out L/R to computer line in jack, change Default playback to UX1 - Everything works fine except I cannot hear guitar.
So, to summarize -
Guitar in Instrument Jack
Y-cable out from analog outs to Line-In on computer (output knob all the way to 11)
UX1 is green and happy
Windows sound card has Line 6 UX1 and default device
Headphones connected to UX1 (since its the default device - and I hear other things like Line6 Youtube)
FarmPOD 2.5 is launched with Preference\HW\ set to Asus Xonar
Plug in guitar - no sound. And I thought I was a smart guy.
