My current set-up consists of my laptop plugged into a monitor via HDMI. This monitor has it's own speakers that are atrociously bad quality, so my theoretical choices for audio output are:
1. My monitor integrated speakers, listed as: "Intel(R) Display Audio"
2. My laptop speakers
3. My earphones, through laptop headphone jack.
Due to some reason I also can't explain, both my laptop speakers and earphones both get displayed as "Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio(SST))", the laptop makes no distinction between whether or not that is the earphones or the laptop speakers, there is no separate device listed when they are plugged in.
So, due to the awful sound quality of the monitor, as mentioned, I went ahead and disabled the Display Audio devices in Sound Settings, because I only ever want to be playing from either the laptop or the earphones, but lately (can't quite remember when it started), whenever I have the laptop plugged into the monitor, and I either plug in OR unplug my earphones, for about 15 seconds or so, the output device starts flickering between the monitor speakers and the laptop speakers/earphones. If I have music playing, it literally starts flickering between the two speakers as well and it is quite frustrating.
When I look at the sound settings to display output devices, the monitor speakers are literally appearing and disappearing as a SECOND "Intel(R) Display Audio" in addition to the one that I already have listed as disabled.
Any ideas? Thanks for your time!
