Simultaneous sound in speakers and headset

    Hello!

    I was wondering about something.
    I just got a new 7.1 Siberia SteelSeries USB headset, that I want to use in parallell with my 5.1 speakers.

    The idea is that there is always sound playing in both devices, so that I can just mute the headset when it is not in use.

    Now I have to change default device everytime I want to change which devcie is active. This is obviously very inconvinient.

    I googled it a bit, but there are so many solutions, so I'm not sure what to do!

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
