just got a second monitor, connected display port to hdmi, and the 1st one is hdmi to dvi. both are now connected to my graphics card gtx 660. one of my monitors (asus vx238h-w) does play audio, but i dont want it to.

i have my speakers plugged into the onport 3.5mm jack. but it wont play sound anymore. suggestions?

ive tried setting the speakers as default device. not working. but when i set the vx238h monitor as default. it will play from it.

tried uninstalling and reinstalling realtek driver. not working
tried disabling the nvidia sound stuff in the drivers menu. doesnt work.
 
Solution
You need to remove all Geforce/Nvidia drivers belonging to your graphics card.

Now reinstall them except for the audio drivers (deselect them in custom install menu).

Your sound should then be provided by Realtek onboard sound controller if that's the one you prefer.
