Force audio out laptop's USB for outboard DAC?
« on: December 27, 2012, 02:38:22 pm »

I have an HP laptop running the Realtek HD audio driver set 6.0.1.5869. I use this as a HTPC connected to my Yamaha AV receiver featuring Burr-Brown DACs. When streaming audio, I would like to force the audio output from the laptop through its USB port and on to a Yamaha set of of inputs. I intend to do this by way of a male USB to male RCA cable (commonly available).

How can I achieve this using the Realtek SW user-interface? If I click the [Digital Output] tab and select [Set Default Device], will this suffice?
