So, I have a slightly old fashioned setup using a plain 2.0 stereo amp for movie sound via a 3.5 mm TRS ("mini-jack/mini-stereo") to RCA adapter cable. Alternative to this, I can also route audio over HDMI directly to the TV, but with a rather plain sound experience as a result.
Thing is, I would be quite content with plain TV sound for everyday TV-series watching and it would be good not having to use the amp just to get sound at all, but XBMC only let's me choose one or the other (at least as far as I've been able to get).
The question:
Is the any way to somehow trick XBMC (or the underlying OS) to feed sound to both analogue and digital/HDMI out simultaneously?
EDIT:
If it's of any help/makes any difference :
Plain analogue headphone out is via "IDT92HD81 Audio Codec" (as from System specification)
Digital out is via "HDA Nvidia hdmi" (as presented in XBMC/System/Sound)
