I've Googled and YouTubed to my hearts content and to no avail. As the topics title explains I purchase an Astro A40 (2013 edition) headset to use on my PC and PS4. It works flawlessly on the PS4 and I love the audio.
Unfortunately, when I connect the mixamp to my PC I only receive stereo sound. I've double and triple checked, I have the USB power cables plugged in, along with the optical cable, but for whatever reason I can't get surround sound.
Now I've done some digging around and some people have said a dedicated sound card is required. Others say the on board audio should work.
At this point I am confused and need help. Will the on board audio work or not? If so what do I need to configure?
