Given the garbage audio heard on the bands, you are one in 10,000
who does not do *some* of the other things with the shack computer.

The number of amateurs using some kind of DX alerting system and/or
streaming music while waiting for someone else to find them "a new
one" to work in significant and you can hear most of their alerts
or music on the air from time to time.

How about using, as I do, a totally separate computer that runs the radio equipment and logging functions.  All of that other stuff is banned from the shack and done on the desktop computer in the office.  I don't need audible alerts of anything, thanks.

That doesn't prevent other sounds - particularly VoIP (Zoom/Skype)
and steaming audio (Pandor, Podcasts, etc.) from reaching the rig
(and being transmitted if the digital program is running and/or
the VOX is enabled).

There *IS NO BETTER SOLUTION* than a separate sound card for the
rig connection and proper a properly configured operating system
that separates "computer audio" and "radio audio".

A generically 'bad' idea and is the reason that voice, operating system sounds (all illegal) and poor audio are often in the digital portions of the bands.

HNY!

You don't need a sound card beyond the one in your computer.
