Windows Media Player 10 - No DVD Sound

[lostxn]

Hello and thanks in advance for any assistance.

I have found some posts on this, but not really any solutions. I have a DVD writer that plays CD's fine, and the DVD video fine, but will not play any sound while playing DVD's. I have installed drivers, codecs, etc., but can not seem to convince the DVD player that it needs to play sound with the movie. I know that I can install a 3rd-party DVD player, but I would really like to make WMP 10 work like its supposed to. I have this working on two other computers, but don't remember having to go through any of this stuff.

Summary:
Video on DVD plays perfectly
Sound doesn't play
Drivers and Codec installed (Video & Sound)
Device Manager shows digital enabled
Speakers are not muted
Sound Card works for everything else
DVD player plays sound perfectly on all CD's

Help! Thanks again...
