Windows 10: Separate Headphone Profiles

I (like many people) am working from home and I'm using my personal rig to do it. I've set up another account on the computer to keep most of the work-related stuff separated. The one issue I'm having is headphones. I have a set of USB headphones with a mic for work and a pair of non-USB (3.5 audio jack) headphones that I use for gaming and everything else.

The problem is that I need to unplug one or the other for whatever profile I'm on (the headset is uncomfortable to wear long-term). Ideally, I'd like to keep both plugged in and have Windows ignore one or the other based on what profile I'm using.

Does anyone know of a tool/hack that could do that? I tried looking on Dr. Professor Google but came up empty. Any help would be appreciated.

most of the cans you listed will also need an amp to push them.

 

Volumes for headphones and speakers are separate

Hi,

To assist you better, please answer the below:

1. Are you changing the volume on headphone or from the sound icon in the taskbar of the system?

2. How are you trying to change the speaker volume?

I suggest you to run Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter.

Follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + W and type troubleshooting.
• Select Troubleshooting.
• Select View all on the top left corner.
• Click Hardware and Devices.
• Follow the on-screen instruction to run the troubleshooter.

Also try to download and install the latest chipset and Sound drivers from the manufacturer website and install the same.

Hope it helps. Revert to us with the results, will be glad to assist you.

Thank you.
