[QUOTE="wjw, post: 1287365, member: 79284"] I think this is a variation on other questions about audio output and setup. I specifically want to have my MP sound output over both my speakers (optical out to a Sony receiver to control the speakers) and headphones simultaneously - and am having great difficulty getting this to work. Either/or is easy - together not! The reason for wanting to do this is that my hearing is deteriorating as the years roll by (I already have hearing aids which are OK for normal speech/conversational use but which really don't do all that well for music/films etc. For this I take the hearing aids out and use headphones where I can control the volume and quality of the sound to suit me. My wife has no such hearing problem and always wants the sound at a lower level than me. So the ideal solution would be the "standard" speakers for her and headphones which have their own volume etc. controls for me. So. has anyone ever managed to do this? Theoretically this can be configured in WIn 10 - but I've never made this work. I have also tried the Voicemeeter software, which works fine, but unfortunately works in such a way that there is an audio stream permanently active so Windows will never sleep/hibernate. Look forward to any comments. [/QUOTE]
