sound card drivers not supported

I installed sonar 4 producers edition
and it says your sound card drivers do not support the particular format or they are being used by another program
I have a built in Sigmatel soundcard that came with my Intel D946-GZIS motherboard
I went to the intel site and upgraded the drivers but they still dont work.

I have used cakewalk successfully on realtec soundcards

what do i do?
please help

Try this and let us know if it worked.
Go to Options<Audio<Advanced in SONAR. Select MME in the driver mode drop-down menu. Click OK and restart SONAR. When it opens back up it will reprofile your sound device and then you can select the Microsoft synth.

I had the same problem on my Vista with a realtek audio card.
and sonar 8

Your solution did the job and i can hear the sound now. Guess it depends what outputs you have connected?
I have my headphone output connected to an old analog (but very good) Amp and i really like the sound.
Lucky for me that i found this topic.

Thanks!

There is no bluetooth built in on the RPi so you have to fix that first, and you should find out if the drivers you are using for the keyboard/touchpad are available on linux.

As far as I remember, the first thing after installing any DAW is to select a low-latency audio driver which in most cases should be ASIO. I am also sceptical for the Microsoft ones

I can confirm, Microsoft ones suck. I've had so much trouble while I was on them...
