I'm pretty sure I haven't got any 3D-positional audio with my NuSound, even
with the new drivers. I've tried a lot of things, but nothing seems to work.
The A3D checkbox stays checked, but the only effect is that some sounds seem
to get muffled - no directional clues except stereo. (works splendid in
Unreal though!). Perphaps it's another issue for the Valve guys.

Best regards,
Anders
