Controlling Sound Devices-Want USB headset for TS and speakers for game?

[Friar]

Salute Chaps

How do I configure my computer to have Teamspeak using a USB headset and the game coming from my speakers?

I have gone into the sound settings and set output as the default sound and microphone as the logitech headset, but what about TeamSpeak output?

I know some of you do this, @Sid ?

In TS: Tools, Options, Playback: Playback Device and Capture: Capture Device - select the proper ones in there... Should work... ?

I can get TS to work no problem, but I still get the game coming through the headset, not the speakers.

I do not see how to split them apart

Mine is simple my head set is usb, so splitting the two is straight forward.

With a single sound card IIRC you plug the big speakers to the rear jacks, and the headset and mic to the front jacks, manipulate it with the sound card software and then TS.

I can't test it though I no longer have and split cable headset.

That should be done in Window's sound control panel.

Right click the speaker icon, select 'Open Sound Settings'  - select the speakers/on board sound card.

Me thinks you must have the USB headset connected first. Chances are, if you set it to the speakers and afterwards connect (Add) the UBS headset, it will probably select it as the default output device...

Check windows sound settings and also the sound setting off the taskbar, make sure your speakers are the one selected.
