Headphones And Sound Skype And Games

[Stucole]

Hello everyone,

When I online game and talk to my friends on Skype, both game music and Skype chat come through my headphones,,
I have tried and tried but I just cannot work it out, what I would like to happen is have the game music coming through my PC speakers and only Skype through my headphones??
Any thoughts or links to videos I can see would be great, I'm a total noob when it comes to things like this.
My headphones have a USB connection and the game I am playing is Elder scrolls online.
Kind regards
stu.

In Elder Scrolls set the game to use your pc speakers, and these should be set as the default sound devices in Windows. This is assuming your pc speakers are plugged in to audio connections at the back and are not connected via usb.

In Skype options under audio, choose the usb headset/microphone as the defaults.

Don't forget your microphone may well pick up the sound from your pc speakers and broadcast it to your friends.

Ok thank you, I will give that a try tonight. Tho I don't remember seeing an option in game to make that change. Yes my speakers are plugged into my tower via a little pink and green jack plugs,

I was hoping Skype has a push to talk option:)

Elder Scrolls picks up the default settings from Windows, which is why I said make sure you set the pc speakers as Windows default.
