Sent an e-mail to RCA about the problem and they said that they would repair/replace the unit for a flat charge of $30 if I sent it to them. (would have been completely free if I had lied about the purchase date...but I'm fair when it comes to companies who actually take the time to personally respond to E-mails) I think I'll send it in and will hopefully get a new receiver to fix this problem...whatever it may be. now to see if I can get them to pay for the shipping costs there and back... ^.^

the only band-aid I've found is an effect that slightly reverberates the audio so that the length between pauses is decreased. It works okay, but it isn't great...still looking for any information that could fix.

Okay...so this might be a little weird, here are my specs:

Asrock extreme3 Gen3 z68 motherboard (using on-board audio connections)
Cheap/lowend RCA receiver, 5.1.

In the past I had my computer connected through rca connection without any problems. (red/white>3.5mm) But I recently bought two optical cables; one for my xbox 360 and one for the computer. On the 360 the sound is perfect with everything, books on CD, movies, TV shows...everything. But when I use my computer to play an Audio book, listen to scholarly talks or youtube videos the audio will not start for up to 3 seconds, missing the audio all together, and it will continue this for every pause one second or longer.

I've updated my Realtek audio driver.
Uninstalled the driver and preformed a clean install.
downloaded a set of Codecs (media player codec pack)
used the optical cable that does work.
Switched cables to see if there is a difference, with both cables providing the same error on the PC only.
and I've set the effects to "off" in the driver properties.

Nothing works...except one thing. I can use Pandora to play music in the back ground, even if its volume is at 1%, the spoken word plays flawlessly. I can upload a short video and share it if you need a visual/audible explanation.

I've searched online extensively and I've not found anyone having a problem like mine, so I hope that no one here has a post regarding this issue. Any insight as to why this is happening or how to fix it, would be greatly appreciated.
