[QUOTE="Blondiesrn, post: 1379323, member: 241714"] [b]combining audio outputs on iMac[/b] I am having the same problem. I am using a mini Toslink digital fiber cable to a receiver for outdoor speakers, and the Bose Companion 5 system connected through the USB port. Each system works independently if chosen as output, but when trying to create an aggregate device I have the same issues. The formats are set to be the same and I no longer get a sample rate mismatch error, and each speaker tests fine, but no sound from any speaker with iTunes. I noticed you stated that iTunes only plays 2 channels of audio. When I select the Bose system by itself it plays just fine and it says 6 channel-16bit. What I want is to have the audio sent to both systems 100% of the time so that I will not have to show others how to go into the computer's audio settings just to turn on outdoor music.
