I currently have a SupremeFX II soundcard that came with my motherboard (asus maximus formula) and currently I have my headset plugged in at the back 24/7 and just max it's volume when I want to listen to something without putting it on. I know that's not a great idea, so what I would like to know is if there is any way I can get it set up that I have some cheap (but good enough) speakers attached at the same time as the headset, and have different programs output to different devices? such as Mumble, Skype etc... to my headset, and VLC to the speakers?
The front panel audio ports on my case are not an option as the mic gains a ton of static, and the audio out has a popping sound at regular intervals. So is there any way I can make use of the other ports on the soundcard, or is it possible to get some USB speakers or something that would allow me to do send some audio out to the speakers and still some audio from other programs to the headset?
