Hi,

I just got the Astro A50 headset. There are two options to have sound go through. 1) Through the USB (which powers it) or 2) Through an optical cable.

Obviously, I want it through the optical cable, but it's going through the USB by default. I know that that optical cable works because when I use my laptop to power the headsets but play music through my desktop, it works perfectly.

The USB has to be plugged in for power; how do I make it so the sound goes through the optical cable by default?

Thank you

Nope, it's the motherboard.

But the Astro A50s have a bunch of options (media, gaming, sport gaming, etc) that I can only use if I go through the optical cable - they don't work through the USB

Thank you for the reply
