YOU’LL NEED THIS

THE BACK OF YOUR PC
probably has both analog and digital audio outputs. Then there are Bluetooth headphones, USB headsets, the speakers on your monitor connected over HDMI, even external sound-processing boxes. For something that can’t generate more than a harsh beeping noise unaided, your PC can actually find many ways to make a noise.
Windows doesn’t always make it easy to switch between them, though, and is always liable to blast audio through your speakers when you don’t want it to, or to remain stubbornly silent when you try to connect something to its digital optical output.
