Voice to headset and game sounds to speakers
« on: September 20, 2016, 09:48:45 PM »
Is it possible in AH to have the VOX go to the headset while the rest of the game sounds go to the speakers?

In the Preferences>Ingame Sound you can set speaker or headset for various outputs.  Haven't tested it to see if it works.

Yeah I messed around with that but didn't seem to work.  I'm a Mac guy so not up to speed on tweaking computer gadgets.

On the right hand side, make sure you have the correct devices selected for your headset and for your speakers. On the left hand side, you select what audio goes to what device, speaker or headset. As you can see, all mine are set to go to the headset.

Oh good grief!  I totally missed the headset/speaker buttons on the left side.  Thinking that might help.  I'm going to blame it on chemo-brain.

Thanks

If you have a USB headset it is.  You'll have to set the headphones/mic in Windows (usually found in control panel -> sounds) as your default communication device.  Then in AH, in the game sounds under microphone, select your USB headset, do the same for microphone.  Now you'll have vox through the headset while game sounds through desktop speakers.
