Windows 10: 2 different sound outputs in Windows 10?

Hello,

Is it possible to activate 2 sound outputs on 2 devices each?

In my case, the question would be whether I could run Youtube or Spotify on my Bluetooth headphones and the audio from my video game on my USB headset.

Both at the same time, logically enough.

Different two sounds through two different output channels

Hello, my name is Marco and I am an Independent Advisor. I will do my best to help you.

Yes you must go to the sound options to manage each device output for each sound.

Follow these steps

Right click on Windows Start button > Settings > system > Sound

Scroll to "Advanced sound options " and click on " App volume and device preference "

Then when your film is going to play on the TV and another on the computer, you will see the choice of choosing the default output.

One on the hdmi output and the other on the sound card of your pc.

I just tested with two different video players to make sure it works. A film on Media player which played in my headset and the other film on VLC media player which I heard from my PC

 

5.1 surround sound issue in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for your response.

I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

If you’re connecting an optical cable the settings would be changed so try the following steps

Two options:

1. Use the optical S/PDIF output of your motherboard.

2. Use the HDMI output of your GPU. (This is what I'd recommend if you're using a HDMI display).

I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

• 
  Go to control panel.
  
• 
  Select sound.
  
• 
  Click on playback devices.
  

For option 1- connect the cable and set the 'Realtek digital output' as default device.

• 
  Then right click on it.
  
• 
  Go to properties.
  
• 
  At the rightmost tab select DTS or Dolby Digital or 5.1.
  

For option 2-connect the HDMI cable through the receiver and set the 'Nvidia HDMI Output' as your default device. Then click 'Configure' and select 5.1 and check if it helps.

If the issue persist then, I suggest you to connect the speakers directly and check in the realtek audio manager if he gets the 5.1 option or not using the SPDIF\output.

Keep us posted on this issue so that we can assist you better.

Hello, Im trying to output my PC sound to my dual monitor setup (HP VH240a x2)

I've tried enabling the stereo mixer in windows and replaying to the second monitor and even used a direct audio jack instead but nothing.
