So I just bought medium size subwoofer so I can enhance audio played by this laptop a little but this laptop has only 1 3.5mm audio jack for headphones. Is there a way around this so I can connect my subwoofer while everything except bass still plays through laptop speakers? Im looking for any software solution to this. If I dont manage to do this software-wise I will have to buy external soundcard but for a laptop thats not a nice solution at all.

I have managed through B&O drivers to set up 2 output sound devices but one still must be set as default and the other one is disables as long as its not default. So I can now switch between laptop speakers and the subwoofer but I didnt manage to make them play both at one time so far.

I am able to use Stereomix as recording device to listen to what is played by my speakers and output it on my subwoofer but this way the bass (plus its not realy clear bass lots of sounds mixed into it) has delay like 200ms and doesnt sounds good.
