Hey guys, I wanted to know if there was an easier way in switching sound from my speakers to my TV. I have a TV connected to my computer and when I want to watch it, I have to change the Default Device to the TV and vise versa. Is there an easier way besides switching back and forth the default devices?
 
Passive pre-amp. Or built in pre-amp in an amp or receiver with a digital section. A DAC can do this too.

Currently I have 2 studio monitors plugged into an active subwoofer that goes into my audio interface( M-box 3). My TV is connected to my graphic card via HDMI. I will try out those 2 programs you recommended.
