I've adjusted the audio setup you're using. The PC struggles to deliver consistent sound to both devices at once. After some experimentation, I managed to route the kitchen speakers for playback while using the main speakers for listening. This approach works but significantly impacts the audio quality, especially with the Companion 5 speakers now operating in a different mode.

I'm seeking advice on tools or methods that could let you use both speakers simultaneously without damaging your equipment. A hardware solution like a USB hub with a 3.5mm adapter seems possible, though I'm cautious about potential risks. The warranty concerns are valid—Bose's coverage might not extend to such issues.
