Cubase Output Audio Issues

Hi everyone. I seem to be frustrated with how Cubase audio output works. I’m used to working on my laptop with headphones and I have Control Room enabled. Every time I’m not using it, there’s no audio out from Cubase. I have headphones disabled. I don’t use Cubase as my main DAW, so it always confuses me every time I come back to it. Is there a way to always have the CR/Cubase always follow system output audio? And right now even if I choose my built-in audio as my output, I’m not getting any output. I click on Built-in Audio but it still says not connected even if I click on it many times.
Everything seem to be fine or I’m missing something?



You need to connect the device ports. If the device should have 24 outputs, how could Cubase know which is the CR output?

Did you ever consider reading the manual?
