Half Life 2 sound problem

[XDesolatorX 0]

I have only just bought half life 2 it runs great but there is one problem. I can only hear in game sounds when I am looking in the direction they are coming from, for instance if I was stood with Barney on the very left of the screen i could not hear him very well.
