I’m trying to get VB-Audio Matrix to play sound from DaVinci Resolve Studio using ASIO over Watch2Gether for screen sharing, but I cannot get it to work. I’ve also tried Zoom but cannot get this to work either.
I’m on Windows 10 Pro and have an Audient iD14 audio interface.
In Matrix, I created a virtual audio cable and routed it to my interface under Windows Device inside of Matrix. In Resolve I selected the virtual cable as my output. In Windows Sound the Audient 1/2 is selected as my default sound device. Here are screenshots of my full setup:
VB-Audio Matrix:
- Matrix Setup.png (94.12 KiB) Viewed 32057 times
- Resolve Setup.png (73.87 KiB) Viewed 32057 times
- Windows Sound.png (33.97 KiB) Viewed 32057 times
Everything works on my end, I get sound out of Resolve and it plays through the default Windows Device, so it seems like this should work.
However, when I go to Watch2Gether and try to screenshare with audio I get an error:
“The device could not be activated. Please check the permissions by clicking on the lock symbol next to the address bar.”
When I try to connect to Zoom I get an error:
“Failed to detect your speaker. Please make sure your speaker is properly connected.”
If I close Matrix and use “System Audio” as the output in Resolve, then it plays through both Watch2Gether and Zoom. However, due to a bizarre complication with Resolve and an audio plugin (outside of the scope of my question) in order to get the plugin to work I do have to use ASIO as the output from Resolve. So I need to route the ASIO output from Resolve to the system audio and have that work through Watch2Gether or Zoom (if I can get Zoom working then Watch2Gether should also work).
Any help in getting this figured out would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
