    Is there a way to Use HDMI monitor with built in speakers and Headphone Jack for sound simultaneously? Right now i can set each one as default sound device and get sound out of one or the other. :cool:

    Its been a long time, but I vaguely recall needing to go into the sound settings look for a function to listen to this device and basically pipe it in through the mic then out the analog speakers. search those types of terms and you might find it.

    Well that was not useful, anyways for those who do want to output sound through both HDMI and Stereo Analog Jack:
    -Right Click your volume control->Recording Devices->Enable Stereo Mix (if not alraedy) and right click into properties->click tab "Listen"->Check "Listen to this device"-> choose what you want to be duplicated, in my case (HDMI/Monitor)

    Done. There is a slight 5ms delay or so.... Not the best solution because its not actual outputting audio through both, but instead listens to your soundcard and sends it to hdmi.
