If you wish to control audio from your PC or Mac, and want more flexibility in your audio customization, download the free Sound BlasterAxx Control Panel software here. Note(s): The Creative Central app is now renamed as Sound Blaster Central for use with Sound Blaster products.
I've fitted a Creative Sound Blaster Z to my Windows 7 64-bit Professional and installed Creative control panel and (the latest 64-bit?) drivers.
In the speaker menu on the bottom right of Windows I have 2 playback devices, Speakers and SPDIF OUT, both are the Creative audio card. If I use the volume sliders in this menu nothing changes, I have to use the volume slider in the Creative control panel which is quite annoying.
The volume up/down buttons on my keyboard only affect the Windows mixer so they don't work either.

How can I configure the audio card volume to be based on what the windows mixer says so I can use the buttons on my keyboard and the sliders in Windows? Thanks

As solution a simple program called Volume2, that allows to set 'What U Hear' as main audio device, is suggested. (But the answer is not accepted by the OP and has no up-votes.)

Created system restore point, then installed audio & video drivers from Microsoft Update. Lost audio & screwed up video, speaker icon in system tray disappeared. Tried to go back to the restore point, but system said that there was a problem and it could not restore my system to the restore point and no action was taken. Went to Creative & Nvidia and got latest drivers and installed OK. Device Manager shows no problems. Opened 'Sound and Audio Devices Properties' control panel. On Volume tab, the 'Device Volume' & ' Speaker Settings' areas are greyed out. 'Audio' & 'Voice' tabs, have SB X-Fi Audio selections as default devices. 'Hardware' tab has all devices enabled and working properly. Since sound loss was systemic, I checked BIOS and it had sound disabled, so I enabled it, but suspect this is for intergated motherboard sound. Checked Windows Audio Service, restarted it and made sure it starts automatically on windows startup. Restored sndvol32.exe from WinXP installation disk.
