Playing Audio Through Multiple Outputs in Windows

To play audio through two devices at once, enable the "Stereo Mix" feature:

1. Right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select Open Sound settings.
2. Scroll down and click on More sound settings under the Advanced section.
3. In the Recording tab, right-click and select Show Disabled Devices.
4. Right-click on Stereo Mix and choose Enable.
5. Set Stereo Mix as the default recording device by right-clicking it and selecting Set as Default Device.

This setup allows audio to be duplicated across multiple output devices.

After enabling Stereo Mix, configure your playback devices:

1. In the Playback tab of the Sound Control Panel, right-click your primary audio device and select Properties.
2. Navigate to the Listen tab.
3. Check the box labeled Listen to this device.
4. From the dropdown menu, select Stereo Mix as the playback device.
5. Click Apply to confirm the changes.

This configuration routes audio through both selected devices simultaneously.

If you encounter issues with dual audio output:

• Update Drivers: Ensure all audio drivers are current to prevent compatibility problems.
• Check Connections: Verify that all audio devices are properly connected and recognized by the system.
• Test Sound: Conduct sound tests to confirm audio is playing through both outputs.
• Adjust Volume: Manage volume levels for each device to achieve balanced sound.
• Restart System: Reboot your computer if changes do not take effect immediately.

These steps can help resolve common issues related to multiple audio outputs.
