Hi,

I currently have some 2.0 speakers and I also have a wireless USB headset.

Is there a way I can set both to be Playback devices in Vista i.e. make sound come out of both at the same time? It seems to be one or the other at the moment using the Windows sound options (pic below, 2.0 speakers enabled).

Any advice appreciated (even if it is to say "it can't be done")

The reason is that I want to watch the golf in HD tonight (TV required) and the missus and her sister don't, unsurprisingly. Therefore they have asked if this can be done so they can sit infront of the computer and watch a movie, one using the wireless headset, and one using headphones plugged into the 2.0's.

erm, that's not the point - I know that a 3.5mm jack splitter would create 2 outputs from the speakers, unfortunately I don't have one. It would not result in audio coming out of the speakers & "wireless USB" headset which is what I asked about. But thanks for trying.
