I just "took the plunge" and tried your patch. Fantastic! You need to take a spin to Redmond WA (the M$ campus) and show them how to handle multiple audio outputs.
I now have HDMI + 2.0 audio in my bedroom and Optical 5.1 in the front room.

Sorry to say that after using this for a week, I stopped using it. Every video I played had severe stuttering when first launched. It became quite annoying. But after reading this thread I learned more about profiles, so I set up a "Stereo" profile and a "Surround 5.1" profile. This is most likely the way I will have to configure Eden when it is released.

UPDATE: Using profiles was not the way to go. So I tried again, this time setting WASAPI Optical , 5.1, AC3/DTS checked, as my FIRST device (instead of the 2nd device) and now I don't get the video stuttering when starting a video with my i3-530 HTPC!

Thanks for all of your hard work.

I mean, that's what the whole git/github concept is for, right? Spent the better part of the last 4 hours getting the latest and greatest master working with dual audio... and it does.

I'll try to keep it up to date when I have time.

Thanks for your work darkscout. Do you know if your pre 11 build is using the new master-audio subsystem or is still using the old sound system?

Still using the old sound system.

In all honesty, it looks like he made dual audio easier. Maybe it's just me. Anynone want to tackle the Dual Audio part of AE?
