So, i just bought the new Razer Kraken Chroma, but for some reason the audio doesent go through the headphones, it goes directly to the monitors speakers, the headset is recognized in device manager, and drivers are installed, im using windows 8.1, ive tried both USB 3.0 & 2.0 ports... any ideas?

I've and experience with the Razer kraken. Let's say I'm using HyperX Cloud 1s right now after about 3 months of using Krakens. Also the kraken is USB ? I thug hit you could only use audio jacks atleast with the Razer kraken pros.

Right-click the sound icon at the bottom left of your taskbar and click "playback devices"

Right-click your headset and set it to default.
