Sound Card/Headphones Question

[carnau]

I have a ASUS XONAR DGX 5.1 Soundcard with some speakers in it and I also have a set of Razer ManO'War headphones that I use for gaming. I was wondering if there is any way to make both of them work simultaneously so If I wanted to hear the game on the speakers all I have to do is turn the volume up on my speaker knob.

Thank you,
Chris

You definitely can do it, but wait for an expert to comment—it's many years since I did that, and don't recall how.

Thank you, Still waiting.

I have active speakers with their own internal DAC/amp and a desktop DAC/amp for my headphones so my PC sees both as separate devices. When I power the speakers on sounds comes from them and when I turn them off it goes to the headphones.

I realize that's a nuclear option, but its all I have. Ask over at Toms Hardware and see if someone knows there.

One of these may help—I haven't read them, just top results from a quick search:
