Audio from speakers and headphones at the same time

Hello everyone,
I've recently bought an Acer Predator 300 with Windows 10. I was wondering if it was possible to have normal sound come out from the laptop's speakers while at the same time having audio from conversations (such as Discord or Skype) came from headphones plugged in the 3.5 mm port. On my desktop pc I was able to set this up but on the laptop, under the Audio tab it always display a single device and automatically switches all audio from speakers to headphones when I plug them.

Thank you

    Right Click Sound/Audio icon on taskbar and select Sounds
    Playback:
    Set Realtek High Definition Audio (SST) to Default Device
    Set Headset to Default communications Device
    Recording:
    Set Headset to Default Device, right click and select Properties
    From Properties go to Listen tab, go to "playback through this device" drop menu
    Select Default Playback Device

    That's how i got mine to work (p11 headset)
