Windows 10: How to change Firefox audio output without 3rd party programs?

Haven't found a solution to this anywhere. Idea is to set all sounds to one place, say to sound card (Realtek motherboard integrated) but tell Firefox to go to Logitech G935 headset instead. Chrome did have some solution (for other reasons Chrome won't do) but I'm out of ideas with Firefox. Solutions I have require all kinds of third party elements from various places and since I'm playing and recording music I'm not prepared to taint my system with such.

Goal is to have other person to watch stuff on Firefox with audio while I'm jamming with guitar on the same system and both have their own audio. The guitar direct delay free sound only available from direct feed from the motherboard so Firefox has to go to other audio outputs besides the integrated motherboard option.

I suppose I could go for third browser option that is safe and security wise well maintained.

Thanks for help!

3rd party AV program

The message you are describing may be observed if another antivirus program is still installed or there are remnants of a third party antivirus program still installed.

Note the statement "If you want to use Windows Defender Antivirus, uninstall all of your other antivirus programs and Windows Defender Antivirus will automatically turn on. You may be asked to restart your device."

Go to Security and Maintenance, look in 'Security' and see what program is listed under Virus Protection. Windows Defender will not be enabled and functioning properly if there is a program other than Windows Defender listed.

3rd party AV program

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.
