How to switch audio output device?
I have a speakers and headset simultaneously connected to the PC, what I switch between via motherboard driver. The sound of the game and system are coming from the headphones, but the music is coming out of the speakers. I can't found where change this in the settings.

It's switch possible?

PS: Sorry about the use of google translator LOL

You can't, at least by doing anything with Steam, due to a bug. What you can do is check Windows sound settings, in the Playback (first from he left) tab you have a list of all sound devices on your system. You can set two options there: "Default device" and "Default communication device".

Steam client itself, unless it's set up differently, uses "Default device". Steam Music uses "Default communication device", it should also be using "Default device". This should be fixed soon.

In short change "Default communication device" in Windows sound settings.

Thanks, man. Now the sound of Steam Music is coming from the headphone too. Many thanks :)
