Cloning the sound on 2 screens

Hello everyone,

To begin with, I'm sorry if I've posted in the wrong section, but I couldn't really find one that matched my issue...

Here’s my problem,

I currently have two screens, one connected to my PC via DVI (desktop monitor) and the other connected via HDMI (LCD TV that is used as a TV and/or for movies). Both are connected to my graphics card (GeForce GTX 460)
I want to receive audio through both video sources via their respective channels; let me explain:
The LCD TV through its own speakers and my desktop monitor through my Logitech E930 headset (audio via USB) at the same time

I'm unable to do this and I don't understand how to make it work... I can get sound on both by configuring the playback devices, but only one can capture the sound at a time, never both simultaneously.

I've been searching and searching on numerous sites, but none have the same issue as me with the same configuration :(

If a kind soul passes by, they would save my life :D

Thanks in advance!

    Basically, I would like the sound to come out of 2 outputs:

    One through HDMI to my TV
    The other on my PC

    It's possible if you have a Realtek sound card and a panel of jack inputs on the front...

    Then you set up the inputs and outputs in the Realtek audio manager...
    As for me, I separated the input and output streams from the front and back of the PC, so I can choose the audio device in my games and software...
    Thus I have the game sound on the speakers and the sound from teamspeak in the headset...
    But sometimes it can be a bit temperamental...

    Don't forget to activate all the audio devices by right-clicking on the list displayed in the small speaker icon at the bottom right (the white one)

    Why do it simply when you can do it complicated?

      Yes, but one of them is USB and the other is jack. Does that bother you?

    Life... woah...
    Alright, let's summarize so I understand well...
    You have two screens and on each screen do you want different sound and different images? Or the same sound and different images? Or is it something else?
    We must keep in mind that the PC screen counts as a third screen. Unless you don't have one and the two screens will be used to see what's happening. Is that it?
    What is your operating system?
    If it's Windows, I'm going to have to boot from my USB stick, boohoo.

    Good evening,

    Let's keep it simple ^^

    One through its speakers (LCD TV) and the other through my headset (LCD Screen)

    I am on Windows 7 Ultimate.

    Thank you for your responses at this late hour :)

    rafit jad kuldinger, I don't think I fully understand everything you're saying ^^'

    I don't have Realtek, I believe it's the NVIDIA driver provided with the graphics card I have :(
