hi there,
i am noticing that audio playback options are quite limited in first edition ... though i couldn't find any information online regarding this i am unable to find the "playback devices" preferences menu in order to play sibelius' audio through my audio interface rather than just my computer speakers. has anybody else come across this issue ? am i just going to have to stick to using my computer's internal soundcard ? any workarounds ?

Sibelius First is free. It is a severely crippled version of the software with very limited use. There is nothing you can change. Try using your computer's own sound system to redirect the audio to a different output device.
