Isn't there a self powered USB Hub that can be used for Nintendo Switch and PS5(To use with a SoundblasterG6 DAC & Headphones) where you don't have to press a button on the Hub itself, or use a remote to press a button, when you want to switch between devices?

Like, a Hub that instead automatically recognizes which device is being used once it's turned on? I'm tying to make things less complicated and simpler, because it almost feels like a mini ritual booting a game up with this set up. I want it to be easier.

I'm currently using this Hub >

But again, you have to press a button on the HUB or use the remote's button to turn 1 of the 4 devices on before watching a movie or playing a game. Ideally, I'd ditch the headphones, DAC & usb Hub and get a Sennheiser Ambeo Soundbar & matching Subwoofer and call it a day. But I live in an appartment so that's a no go!

On the SoundBlaster G6, can you not just input one via USB and the other via optical?
