Anybody know if this is possible? For example if I had earphones in for gaming but my other screen had a movie for someone to watch with my speakers. Thank you!

Can't you just change the audio setting in the application to the playback device you want? Usually it sets to default on whatever you're using, but you can change it individually per program.

Well this is a good thought, like skype in headphones and spotify in speakers but all programs dont have this feature.. At least not what I know of? I mean I don't think you can go in to chrome (as an example) and just change the sound output?

I don't use chrome but according to this picture you should be able to.

Hmm, maybe. Though if we go according to your idea (which seems legit, don't take me wrong), you'll need that option in every software for this to work.
