  1. Can I change audio output based on display?


    Feel free to remove if this is the wrong place, I'm new here.

    So I've got my computer running though a monitor on my desk and a TV mounted above and I'd love to be able to make it so anything displayed on my monitor comes through my headphones, but anything on the tv comes through the tv speakers. For example, if I'm playing a game on the monitor, game volume is in the headphones, and if I'm watching Netflix on the TV, that audio comes out of the tv, but at the same time. Maybe this is odd but I end up switching between watching stuff on the tv, and playing games or doing work on the monitor pretty frequently and it would be cool to not have to switch audio output every time.

  2. No Audio Output Device is Installed

    Hi,

    You will need to select Windows 8 from the drop down list while installing the driver in compatibility mode.

    I would suggest you to try setting the speaker as default audio output by following the steps below and check if it helps.

    1. Right click on the sound icon on the right bottom corner of the taskbar.

    2. Select "playback devices".

    3. If "speaker" is not set as the default device, highlight it and click "set as default".

    5. Save the changes.

    Let us know the result.
