okay guys heres my issue, if im on say teamspeak chatting with my buddies, then what happens is it plays through my headset (with a mic) and i load youtube for instance and want to listen to a song, it plays through my speakers. im at my wits end with this. normally i manage to fix my issues myself, but this is just too difficult, it wont even let me assign the communication headset as my default device. any help or is this hopeless?

Bump, please help

Hi , Could you tell me the model of your headphones? Was the proper driver installed? Does it work on another computer? I suggest you boot in Clean Boot Mode to check whether this issue is related to the third party applications. To set the headphone as the default device. Right-click sound icon, click Playback. If the headphone is found in the Playback tab and Recording tab, select it and click Set Default button. Hope it helps.Tracy Cai TechNet Community Support
