dual audio devices

I run my show using a Windows 10 64 bit computer with two audio devices: an on-board HD audio device and an ASUS Xonar Essence ST PCIe audio card. My goal is to have Hoster play karaoke and video files using the HD audio device while a second program uses the Xonar device to play FLAC audio files. This allows each to connect to their own stereo channel on the mixer and in turn makes it way easier to run the show.

I set Hoster to use the HD device as the primary and the Xonar as the secondary. The Windows default audio device is the HD device. Works like a charm for karaoke files (MP3G, KMH, etc.). But when playing a video file (MP4, AVI, etc.), the sound is routed through the Xonar card. Checked for any settings that might affect this in my codecs but found nothing obvious. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
