i use my tv at the moment lg oled but i use a lg sj8 soundbar with an optical cable plugged into the tv so what ever sounds goes to the tv goes threw my soundbar and turn the tv speakers off , but i play games with the pc on it and want to to is there a way for me to use my astro a50 headset and my soundbar at the same time , the astros are wireless and the tx mixer for the astros plug in with a usb , is there software i can buy to run them both at the same time or anything i can do as when have friends over and play games they can only hear when wearing the headset
 
I use my Astros on my PS4 and PC at the same time. Using an AUX cable going from my PC logitech speakers into the astro a50 amp. This then sends the sounds to the headset. So I'm thinking of something like this maybe but obviously to suit your needs.

What are you playing games on?
 
ps4 xbox one x and pc but i have headsets for the consoles its astros a50 i have for the pc its turtle beach i have for my consoles , tv outputs has headphones and optical , soundbar is optical and hdmi but its optical that connects the soundbar to tv so what ever sound goes to the tv comes threw the soundbar , the astros are connected to the pc with usb as i use it in game for chat and to pin point shots fired etc but when i do that it disables the sound for the hdmi that i connect the pc to the tv , tv doesn't have a display port and im saving up for a monitor but in the mean time i would like to be able to use the headset and soudnbar at same time , i play pubg fortnite sniper elite destiny 2 red alert stuff like that
 
If i'm following correctly, you have sound passed to the TV over hdmi(or 3.5 jack) from the PC, but sometimes use the Astros which also operate using their own sound device over USB, so essentially what you're asking is how to output sound to two different sound devices at once on the PC.

Here's some videos from a quick google, approach should be pretty much the same whether you're using Win 7, 8 or 10.
