With very recent version of Windows 10, you don't even need a DisplayLink driver to play USB audio as it's in the OS itself but I'm sorry to report that it is unlikely to change the behaviour even if no DisplayLink driver will be in the loop. I've been back and forth with Plugable about this for a long time, and they end up pointing fingers at Windows 10. After that, the audio *sometimes* flows from the browser through the Plugable device.Īudio from Windows apps like Windows Media Player seems to work fine the problem is audio through the browser. Often the first time I do this, nothing happens, the highlight bounces quickly to the laptop's built-in speaker and then back to the Plugable then I do it a second time and the test works properly (the audio goes through the Plugable to the stereo). Sometimes I can get the problem to go away temporarily by one of two techniques: clearing the browser cache or going to Control Panel, Audio, Playback tab, right-clicking on the Plugable Audio device, and choosing Test.
And some others like Pandora make it through sometimes. Some streaming music services, like Amazon Music, make it through, while others, like Spotify web player, won't. Some of the stations will "make it through" to the Plugable and then to the stereo, while others will "give up" and play audio through the laptop's tinny speaker. I have constant problems getting audio from the web browser (Google Chrome) to feed to the Plugable device, even though it's set as the default speaker.įor example, I'll be playing streaming Internet radio on TuneIn. I have a laptop running Win 10 Pro 64 bit, and a Plugable UD-3000 DisplayLink device, with the analog audio sent to a conventional stereo system.
