So, Since I have finally started getting heavily into pc gaming again, I have come across a strange thing.

HDMI + PC speakers plugged in at the same time = Audio from steam games comes from the HDMI, And audio from other things come from the audio out on the motherboard.

Now....How would I work this so All audio out is the same? HDMI, And Analog audio outs, outputting all sound from the PC.



I know PHYSICALLY I could simply get a spliter and redirect an analog out to the surround sound, Sacrificing sound quality, but getting the results I want.

But is there some way to simply have windows say "OKAY! YOUR FUCKING SOUND IS PLAYING EXACTLY THE SAME ON THE ANALOG OUT AND HDMI OUT!" Without having to do a physical split and ruin the quality?
