i use a Xonar DG for my Siberia Elite's (AUX) and use my GTX 760 for my TV (HDMI). i switch between the two, depending on what i'm using at the time, but i was wondering if there is any way to have the same audio output through both.

To tell you the truth just use the one in the sound card and take the other card out. i had a xfi with a toslink to stereo and it all worked but was a hassle sometimes. When i put a 5770 in and used the internal audio with HDMI life was so much easier and you get to take out a card making computer use less juice.

I did the same thing as thently, when my X-Fi Fatal1ty Xtreme Gamer Pro card starting crackling over the digital coax output. I didn't realize my video card even had audio over the HDMI, but it sounds great and when input into the surround sound receiver, and allows for lossless audio tracks on blu-rays.
