Commands:
- Alt+NvDA+S: toggle sound splitter between enabled with NVDA on the right channel, NVDA on the left channel, or disabled.
Sound Splitter settings
You can configure add-on settings from NVDA menu/Preferences/Settings/Sound Splitter category.
- Split NVDA sound and applications' sounds into left and right channels: checkinb this checkbox will enable sound splitting feature.
