Due to the way our hardware is designed and the way it interacts with Avid Media Composer (and other software), Avid is trying to push audio out through the UltraStudio 3D along with the video. This keeps the audio and video on the same clock. If you need to monitor audio, you can either connect speakers to the UltraStudio 3D's outputs, or if you want to monitor on your computer, you could take the audio output of the UltraStudio 3D and send this to the line-in on your computer to push the audio to your sound card, though this might cause sync issues with the audio.
