Not sure if this is the right area, or if any one can help, but here we go.

I have a FoxConn P4M9007MB motherboard which as a Realtek HD built in audio. The on-board has the usual connection, mic, line in / out, and 8 channel, it also has SPDIF (optic).

Anyway, it comes bundled with Realtek HD audio manager, which allows you to control how many speakers etc.

Anyway, what I would like to know, and what I cannot seem to find, is that in this application (or an add-on), is there anyway to control which output device it uses.

I have both the SPDIF connected to an external amp, and also a line out to speakers on the PC monitor. What I would like to be able to do, is choose which connection I could use, without unplugging each one, as you can guess, being around the back of the PC it is a pain.

Anyway, hope I have explained myself.

Cheers,
Steve

Albie999,

Can't you select the outputs from Windows Volume control or the Realtek mixer applet?

We have a computer with a Realtek HD onboard but it has no SPDIF. I put an SBLive also in that puter because the Realtek had no MIDI / gameport connector (My MIDI stuff is all pre-USB). The SBLive has SPDIF out which can be toggled from Windows volume control.

Hi Tug, well the following shows the RealTek Sound manager and as you can see in the drop down list .. it will not give me an option for digital out, and even on the colour circles, these cannot be selected to decide which output ... http://www.pbase.com/albie999/imag [...] medium.jpg

When you say use the volume control, how do you mean. I have opened it and see SPDIF, master volume, wave and rear etc, but cannot put a mute in rear, and SPDIF is already unmuted.
