swith front or back audio with a software

Tags: Microsoft

Hi everyone

I have a asrock B450M Pro4 Motherboard, I pluged x3 jack cables from the back of pc to my 5.1 sound amplifier, I managed to make it work with 6.0.9038.1 Realtek HD driver version. When I plug my headphone to the front of the computer, the sound is muted to sound amplifier, evrything works fine.
That’s all, I just wanted to share…

Kiding… I want to know if there a way to choose beetween front (headphone) or back (5.1) without having to plug/unpluged my headphone each time… my computer is noit easily reachable.

When I installed windows 10 for the first time, before updating driver with latest realtek, I could swith and choose beetween front and back audio directly from sound icon in the taskbar, the only problem was I couldn’t have 5.1 to the back, only stereo…

Do you have a software solution for me?

Thanks for reading…

Maybe.

Try https://www.nirsoft.net/articles/set_default_audio_device_command_line.html

However this area is not standardized so you get to try things and see if they work. Be sure to ask your question in the motherboard maker’s own forums.
