2 sound sources. 2 speakers, 1 pc will this work ?

WarWitch

Hi, thanks in advance.

I would like to play net music (youtube, Spotify) through my room sound speakers using an amplified-powered 5.1 sound system and speakers using a USB external sound card. I was thinking about getting the USB external sound card from the same company, but I am afraid of conflicts on the same pc.

At the same time that I play my games sound through my pc sounds card, a sound blaster. 

1. Will this work? 
2. Will it work better with a different company's sound card?

It should work.

Here's a guide for you: https://www.howtogeek.com/352787/how-to-set-per-app-sound-outputs-in-windows-10/

Wait don't order it won't work.....jk I am in one of those moods.  I do something similar and it works fine for me.  My set up is very similar to the guide above.  No needs for repeats, good luck and enjoy it!
