The audio mirror option available under oculus settings/device is great, but i can't get it to work when launching steam games- even those with dedicated oculus mode. Any ideas anyone?
i'm using the bat2exe method of reusing an existing oculus app and making an exe of the same name from a bat that launches the steam app. When i'm in oculus home the audio mirror works fine but as soon as i launch the game it reverts to windows default audio.
in my win10 i just have the rift as the default audio device and never had an issue with steamvr sound
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

A: Top-posting.

I was hoping that by running a steam app from Oculus home the Oculus audio settings would apply, but apparently not. What I'm trying to achieve is this: 1) Outside of Rift I want monitor audio as default 2) When in Rift I want rift headphones as default mirrored to buttkicker. Needed primarily for running a Steam game - Aerofly FS2 which isn't available on Oculus home but is one of the best VR experiences you can get
Options for this: 1) Launch SteamVR with audio mirror enabled - sets off other steam / openvr things I don't want 2) Use Voicemeeter - was too flaky for me 3) Use audiorouter - needs manual config each time as doesn't remember app settings
Hi brmmbrmm, hope this helps, like you I love AeroflyFS2 enhanced with Buttkicker. I use separate headphones ( having removed the Oculus ones) and use my Onboard digital sound selected in Windows 10. The headphones are connected to the y lead for your Buttkicker. This works really well except in FSX SE version, where I have found that I have to use Rift sound as the default in W10, which then precludes the Buttkicker.
