When you use Windows Media Center to play live TV or a DVD on a Windows Vista-based computer, you cannot hear the audio after you wake the computer from sleep

Consider the following scenario:

  • You watch live TV or a DVD in Windows Media Center on a Windows Vista Home Premium-based computer or on a Windows Vista Ultimate-based computer.
  • You pause the live TV program or the DVD.
  • You use the Start menu, a sleep button on the keyboard, or a Windows Media Center remote control to put the computer to sleep.
  • You wake the computer, and then you try to continue watching the live TV program or the DVD.

In this scenario, you can view the video part of the live TV program or of the DVD. However, you cannot hear the accompanying audio.

There is a download that resolves this issue. See Hotfixes for details. This issue is resolved in SP1.
