Question

i just want sound

Answer 1

I'm having same issue. From drop box at top I get to the I/O section & the only device  listedis my 2i2 input on both input & output pages. My USB monitors are not listed as a output option at all. Audacity has a drop box for both I/O that list all possible devices. I find this situation very odd. Sorry I don't have an answer, but maybe another comment will get some attention.

Answer 2

Oh and I did plug in a quarter inch cables from 2i2 and run directly to monitors like that & it worked but sound quality is horrible when compared to running from USB port.

Answer 3

@chadhouser which monitors are you using and trainmolander I need more details
