    This was not helpful. The instructions listed were for Windows 10. I am using windows 11 and the whole sound settings UI is different of that from W10. I can see all of my connected audio devices but I want to connect to them all and stream audio from all of them at once. I do not have the ability to use stereo mix nor do I even have it.

    You can use software like Voicemeeter or similar.

    Just select the 2 hardware out from the dropdown and it works fine. Works with USB DAC, Bluetooth and the onboard audio. I was able to get Stereomix to get audio out from my laptop stereo jack while connecting to my bluetooth speakers but was not able to do the same using Stereo Mix so installed Voicemeeter and it works and is just 2 clicks to set up.

    I got it to work using Stereo Mix tho enabling it in Windows 11 is a bit jumbled. If you want it to output to Bluetooth and HDMI/USB devices as well then the solution was to use the Voicemeeter software which is meant for sound mixing or something but does the job easily. There was also a bit of a delay in the sync of the two outputs (DAC was faster than Bluetooth due to obvious reasons) which was also fixed by setting a delay in the program.

    It is sad that even though all the capability is available in Windows natively Microsoft leaves out so many features/options for no reason at all, making us have to use 3rd party software to do it.

    stereo mix doesn't work because it is very circuitous aNd confusing.

    furthermore it just sound like very low quality audio streams are being sent to the tv.

    i want to use my headphones which are very high quality

    and mirror the audio stream and its bitrate to the tv at the same time

    how do u do this?

    give us check boxes that say "where do you want to play audio?" as a feature of windows 11 pro, but not for home.
