Play two different audio outputs through speakers and headphones (Chrome and say Kodi/media player)

[clintox]

Would really appreciate a solution...

I have a one year old who is constantly on me while I'm on the computer. Sometimes I'm holding her with my arms and sometimes she's in one of those carrier things. Anyway, I am trying to study for insurance exams and other things that require me to watch videos online. My daughter, who is on me, needs the speaker's audio for her kid videos on Kodi and MPC. Right now I just have audio going to a monitor's speakers with Nvidia HDMI.

Can I have my Nvidia HDMI audio go through the monitor's speakers and use Realtek HD audio to play my online videos to my headphones whether plugged in the back or front panel?

I've searched but only really find the same audio going through Realtek front panel and whatever connected to the back.

Thank you for any suggestions!

Kodi definitely can , enter main home screen settings menu,system,audio & you can set audio,output device from within there.

Ahh, you are awesome! I never thought to look within Kodi. It works. I owe you a beer. Now I don't have to listen to Caillou's whiny voice anymore and can get some actual work done.

No problem , I think pretty much only kodi & vlc player allow you to do this .

Lucky you're still on windows 7, win 10 makes it much much more work to have simultaneous outputs.

Glad it worked for you though.
