I am planning on hooking up my sound card to my receiver so that I can listen to music on my good speakers, over TOSLink. But I'd rather keep all other sounds going to my regular PC speakers. Is this possible with MM?
If so, I assume that I'll need some type of output plugin? Currently MM lists only the MM Directsound output, and "waveOutput output v2.0.2a." Where would I get the appropriate plugin to separate the MM music from all other Windows sounds?
Sound card is onboard my Intel mobo, model D975XBX2. It's listed as an Intel Azalia Audio Device. Windows XP control panel lists 2 audio devices, IDT 1 and IDT 2. I can't find any info about them - the help and documentation is next to non-existent. All I know is that setting IDT 2 as the default means that I don't hear anything out of my speakers.
If this sound card won't do what I need, can someone suggest an alternative that will? I have an older SB Live that I used to have installed, but that used to crackle a lot for some unknown reason. Removing it and using the onboard sound fixed that problem, though everything else remained the same.
