I got everything working except the sound.  Under FF7Config.exe I set the sound driver to be "Speakers (Realtek High Def Audio)" and when I test the sound I hear the Chocobo.  However when I launch FF7 through 7th heaven mod and alt tab out I find that the FF7 sound is playing out of the "Realtek digital output."  I don't have digital so there is no sound, but I can see the levels going up and down as the music is playing and sound effects are happening like going up and down on the menu.

I set the default speakers on windows to be the speakers but FF7 still chooses the digital to be the sound.   If I disable the digital output then FF7 won't launch.

Any tips on what to do?  I could find some sort of digital audio speakers that work but that would be kind of a pain.  I'm hoping I can just get FF7 to forget about digital audio and use regular speakers as default.

Are you setting it from the FF7Config that is launched within the game converter?
