Evening

OK, currently I have my GTX 780 attached to my monitor using a the DVI out (to DVI in on the monitor). I'm going to also attach it to my HDTV using HDMI. This won't be a connection I use often. Probably just for the odd game if I'm being lazy and want to slob on the sofa or maybe a film if for whatever reason I don't want to use Netflix on my PS3.

So, my question is - can I set it to output audio over HDMI, but only when that second screen is activated? Meaning that when not outputting to the TV audio will continue to be output to the speakers as usual?

Or in fact, I suppose it won't matter if audio outputs to both.

Either of those possible?

I do exactly that. If I select the HDMi screen as my main output it auto switches the audio to the HDMi. If my DVi screen is selected it reverts to the soundcard jack plug output.

I don't remember doing anything to set it up it was just what happened when I plugged it all in.
