Hi, First, is it possible to set the steamdeck to “default” to always keep picking the steamdeck speaker as default audio out also when an HDMI is connected through the USB-C? I have an old monitor (VGA to HDMI to USB-C haha) and would be easiest to still just output audio in the steamdeck speaker by default. It is easy to switch audio outputs in desktopmode, not in gaming mode unfortunately can’t switch to steamdeck speaker there, doesn’t work.
Second, how do y’all combine music and games? I prefer to play games while listening to youtube full albums (freetube or similar) in background. Doesn’t really seem to integrate well in gaming mode either? Tried adding Monophony and Freetube as non-steam games, but not very succesful. What’s your suggestion for optimizing the setup?
Sorry for the noob-questions. Pic unrelated, sort of.
Cool, you fixed my issues!
The audio output still doesn’t default to the deck speakers, but after following your hint it is now at least easy to select it while in gaming mode.
I installed the decky loader, and as non-steam game Audiotube. It seems to work, doesn’t matter very much to me if keyboard shortcuts like next track don’t function, I usually listen to full albums or dj mixes of 1 or 2 hours.
