Here is my setup:
I have a computer and monitor in my bedroom. It is next to my TV mounted on the wall, which I use as the second monitor when needed. The sound for the computer goes through computer speakers, but of course the HDMI to the TV could also carry audio as well. I would like to have the audio ONLY go to the TV when I am watching videos (movie, TV show, etc.) since the TV will be in use. Otherwise, I would like the audio to be on the computer (maybe just listening to music).
I have tried playing with zones, but I am at a loss. I have tried the simple task of linking the 2 zones so that sound always plays out of both options, but that only works for music, never for video that plays on the TV. I run theater view on the TV as the second monitor, but audio plays on the TV only no matter what I do. And, the linked zones seems to unlink when I stop playback and I have to set it up again. I have tried linking TV to my computer audio andvoce versa, just in case the order mattered. I even tried the ZoneSwitch rules, but that didn't work at all. I would be happy with simply linking the 2 zones so that both always play audio all the time. The TV is off most of the time so this would work when I am on the computer just listening to music.
What can I try next?
