Belkin KVMs with audio ports have a functionality called Audio Freeze. Audio Freeze is turned OFF by default, which allows both analog and digital audio to switch between computers when the active channel is changed. Enabling Audio Freeze will set a static channel that the audio will freeze to even if the channel is changed. 

NOTE: For security purposes, analog and digital audio are segregated in the KVM. Belkin KVMs with 3.5 mm analog audio cannot convert the analog signal to come out over a digital HDMI or DisplayPort connection or convert a digital audio signal to analog. Whichever input type you choose for audio will be the output type for that audio.

1. Power ON the KVM and computer. Set the KVM's active channel to the computer you wish to freeze the audio on.

2. Press and hold the channel button for this computer for 3 seconds to activate Audio Freeze for this channel. The Audio Freeze light on the front of the KVM next to the channel button will illuminate to show that Audio Freeze is active on that channel.
 
Repeat step 2 to disable Audio Freeze on that channel.
