How do I use Rift for Viewing but Separate Non Oculus Headphones for Sound?

[redmantab]

Title says it all. I have my rift but unfortunately after 2 years or so my right right headphone is out. Yes, I've tried every guide and everything.

 

So, fine, I'll just use my higher quality non rift gaming headphones and unscrew the rift headphones. But.....even though I swapped the sound on my computer back to by g33 headset (non rift) DCS world seems to force the sound when in VR mode to the rift.

 

In vr mode with the rift in DCS, how do we change the sound from the rift built in earphones to my own non rift headphones? There must be a setting somewhere? Google turned up nothing.

Solved. I just have to disable the rift entirely in sound options in windows. Kinda lame there is no in game output option?

I think I just have audio mirroring selected in oculus settings.

When your headphone is connected you should be able to select the output you wish by choosing it via windows taskbar (Speaker).

They recently added use Rift sound to the DCS GUI.

Make sure that is unchecked.

I have a set of noise cancelling headphones that cost me £350.

 

I use the rift audio :) because its just as good and I don't need another wire to get tangled in when I use the rift.

 

wires that you cannot see are a health and safety tripping hazard nightmare :)

 

not such a problem if you sit and fly.

but if you room scale....
