alternating between Headphones and 7.1

Here is my problem

Have 7,1 Audigy 2 and creative speakers system with CMSS 3D set for maximum
effect on the 7.1 speakers
But I also Play online games with teamspeak and kids sleeping etc - so need
headset (sound control set to headphones)

Problem is switching back and forth from 7.1 and headphones and visa versa
isn't that quick and when I switch back to 7.1 the CMSS is turned back of
and the front rear balance is back to default. takes a bit of messing about
each time i switch.

My question is this , can I set up a small batch file or something that can
be used to switch back and forth between modes
I'm assuming the speaker settings etc are all registry entries ? , I am
fairly good with VB.NET so any kind of code shouldn't be a problem.
Anyone got any ideas ?

PS i cant just plug in earphones and leave on 7.1 becuase i only hear a
sounds intended for 2 out of 7 speakers so i miss most of the soundfield and
cant hear enemy aproaching etc !
Thanx in advance

You can use a splitter too, then you have headphones AND 7.1 at the same
time.
But speakers can interfere with a mic. you know the sound ;o)
