Ok, so heres what I've got:

Winamp running though my soundcard, I set which sound device I'd like it to run though in Winamp Preferances

Second Life and Ventrilo both running though my USB headset device (which is default, when plugged in, unless you can tell the program which device to use otherwise)

Heres my question:

Is there any way or option somewhere hidden or just right under my nose, that would allow me to pick which device exactly I'd like Second Life running though. I want it though my speakers.

Any tips?

Thanks much,

I don't think there is any way to set the output audio device from within SecondLife. However, you could set your speakers as the default output device in Windows (via Sound Control Panel), then go into the settings in Ventrilo and set the output and input to your headphones. Make sure SL isn't open when you change the default output.
