Hey everyone,
Whenever I use Skype with headphones or speakers plugged into the headphone jack of my laptop and am listening to something, the moment I get an I.M. it changes the audio of whatever I'm listening to come out of the laptop speakers, while I get the ping through my headphones/external speakers. Does anyone know how to make this stop happening?

Thanks in advance!
