Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/PlayCover/PlayCover/issues/675

A Multi-Output Device was set up on Audio MIDI Setup but audio from PlayCover only goes out to the master device.

Verified that the Multi-Output Device was set up correctly--works on Chrome and VLC.

Describe the solution you'd like

Audio should play on all devices included in the Multi-Output Device.

Anything else?

@christian-cortez , @dayouwang18 , I managed to make it work using apps such as SoundControl, for which you will notice that PlayCover doesn't appear as its specific app but rather under "Other apps" and you can direct their sound to the Multi-Output.

This is all well and good, but unfortunately, the program you're referencing costs $25 USD. Are there any free alternatives to this, or has anyone figured out why or how PlayCover apps seem unable to utilize Multi-Output properly?
