Setting up Analog/Digital Audio Output

Some computers may have an integrated audio solution that supports analog or digital external stereo speakers. These systems are capable of auto-sensing the speaker type and outputting the correct signal. To manually change between analog, digital, and auto-sense, complete the following set of procedures based on the operating system.

✎If you set digital as the Output Mode, the internal speaker and external analog speakers will no longer output audio until you switch back to an auto-sense or analog mode. If you set analog as the Output Mode, external digital speakers will not function until you change the output mode back to an auto-sense or digital mode.
