  1. Spatial Sound: Easy way to toggle on/off (jumping between speakers/headphones)?


    I sometimes use headphones, sometimes speakers. I'm also a gamer.

    I have to explicitly enable/disable spatial sound on/off every time I jump between speakers and headphones.

    There surely has to be an easier way, or an auto-detection of headphones to swap back/forth?

    Spatial Sound Format Speaker Properties

    I recently had to replace my original to my computer monitor (a first for me) and thought all I had to do was get another monitor with speakers built in, like the old one. Little did I understand then that selecting a decent monitor with built in speakers
    would not be just so cut and dried? Boo me. Long story short, the sound is low quality and so was experimenting a bit with the speaker properties, and came across the spatial sound setting on my speaker properties. It is turned off because it only
    works for sound enhancement on headphones? I ask because 1) I don't know about spatial anything and b) I don't have any headphones. Thank you for your time and informative explanation.
