I'm building an OpenSimulator virtual world for a client and have run into a maddening problem: my main PC, with this Z87-GD65 motherboard, doesn't handle Vivox voice chats in OpenSimulator and it doesn't handle Second Life voice chats. In both of them, I've verified that it's getting input from my mike but the software is acting like there's no audio at all. It does however work perfectly with voice calls (not chats) on both OpenSimulator and Second Life. The difference between a voice call and a voice chat is that a chat is public. The avatar is talking with anyone nearby. A voice call is a private chat.
I'm also testing with two PC's with older Asus motherboards and both work without any problem. All three PC's are using the same firewall configured identically. I've tried deactivating the firewall on the MSI, but nothing changed.
If you've used Vivox voice or Second Life voice in voice chat with this or a similar MSI motherboard, it would really help me to know whether it works for you.
This is the third problem I've had with this motherboard in the short time I've had it (the motherboard had to be RMA'd for one problem). It's my first MSI motherboard after over twenty years of buying only Asus boards. It's been a frustrating introduction to MSI!
OpenSimulator version: 0.8 Dev (running on three remote servers)
My system (running OpenSimulator and Second Life client software):
- Win 8.1 (non-UEFI)
- i7-4770
- 32GB Crucial Ballistix Tactical RAM
- 300GB WD Velociraptor boot drive
- two Intel 120GB SSD's in RAID 0 for video motion capture
- DVD drive
- Blu-Ray drive
- EVGA GTX-760 video card
- two external USB 3.0 drives (320GB and 2TB)
- two external eSATA drives (3TB each)
- Intel network card
- Corsair TX-750 PSU
