How can I separate my speaker and headphones sound?

[Kriicz]

I am using Windows 7 professional 64bit, with Realtek High Definition Audio.

What I want is to separate the sounds of my headphones and speakers so I can talk to my friends Ventrilo, listen to other stuff like games, YT, streams from my headset and listen to music from ITunes/Grooveshark(website) through my speakers. Is there anyway I could do that?

With two sound cards, yes. With only 1, no.

And how does that work?
I mean choosing what sound goes out of card #1 or #2?

Under Realtek HD audio manager at the top right corner there is "device advanced settings" click that and there is a selection for playing 2 different streams from the front and the back at the same time.
Hope this helps.

That is a totally different screen from mine! what's on the page that is the settings. (click the gear icon)
Also, what motherboard do you have?

Playback device.... It says right there to playback.. make front and rear output devices playback 2 different audio streams simultaneously!
There it is in front of you.. The rear are usually my speakers and my headphones are up front...
What more do you want?
Also I have the "separate all input jacks as independent devices....( I'm a musician)"
This gives more control of the stuff you have plugged in and their levels and such!

I'm looking for the same solution. I got creative gigaworks plugged in to motherboard and external sound blaster sound card via usb. Headphones connected to sound blaster and the only program I can use for music is AIMP. It allows me to pick separate audio device. So I put headphones as a default device for my games and using gigaworks as default in AIMP player. But would be handy to do the same with youtube or spotify.
