Windows 10: Windows10 Sound, i think I broke W10

Situation, I use to connect my logitech 5.1 surround speakers via the 3 stereo ports on the back of my PC Green FL & FR - Orange Center & Woofer - Black Rear Surround SL & SR. W10 recognised these correctly and they worked fine.But then I got a Smart TV as a monitor with it's own Audio output. I connect this TV via a optical cable & Decoder HD audio RUSH to the same Speakers, via split cables .. so both PC and TV are connected to the speakers.I finally got the Decoder working properly but now W10 / PC is throwing tantrums. W10 sometimes only recognises 1 Jack green -

Good surround sound headset

I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue
