Dual audio sources

Hi all, Its been a very long time since i have connected, about 16years. Way back then I had worked out a way to have the audio from ATC chat coming through a headset and all other audio from my surround sound set of speakers. It required 2 audio cards and some crafty editing of ports and software configeration if I recall correctly. 

Is it possible to do this with todays modern setup. Im using Xplane 11 with Xpilot. I have the same surround speakers I had back then using the on board sound card in the PC and have a USB headset for ATC. Today was the first time Ive connected and got the headset setup and working effortlessly with Xpilot but all the sound then comes from the headset. Serioulsy hoping this can be done.

Ok so I think I may have posted in the wrong spot. Seems this is a support forum for a seperate AFV program? Newbie error I think.

To answer your question: yes, you can easily do that with ANY of the pilot clients that are available. Just configure X-Plane to use the sound card of your computer and xPilot (or any other pilot client) to use your USB headset as recording and output device):

How do I change the settings for XPlane audio? I easily found the setting for the Xpilot plugin.
