Hey mate, Welcome to TSF,

I would guess that this is a Sound-card issue.

Your best bet would be to update you Sound Drivers.

If you need help with that, post back here and I'll walk you through it.

That was my thought, but I wasn't sure. So i didn't say anything. Now this is going to sound stupid, but it may work.
If you have something plugged into the microphone jack, unplug it. If do have a microphone, try plugging it in and running it.

Something about those pesky microphone jacks.
This is just a little weird quirk that has actually worked on various games in the past.
