Source Device is not muted once streaming is started which causing to hear source + Wireless speaker #127

Usage: Wireless speaker: Denon Home 150 Windows 11 Realtek Audio driver Latest version of swyh-rs V1.10.2

The problem(not always reproduced) is that when I select the wireless speaker the windows sound is not auto muted and I hear the sound from the win 11 laptop and the wireless speaker

Has someone experienced this and how to fix it ?

swyh-rs simply captures system audio, it does not control system audio.

You could use the windows audio mixer to direct the Spotify music output to a device that is not connected (like headphones) and capture that in swyh-rs.

Or you could use a virtual audio driver like VB-Audio Cable or VB-Audio HIFI Cable, configure that as the audio output device for Spotify in the audio mixer, and capture that in swyh-rs. It's what I do.

Thanks for the fast reply. just to give a heads up. I tried what you said with steam streamer device and another nahimic device and I was getting super slow play ... not delay but slow play of sounds. then I installed as you suggested VB Cable and set it as stream source and all good now. Thanks once again !
