output retask

would like to know guys as i saw this might by complicated as bad as it can, but would like to know if anybody has a possible solution, my computer is a normal desktop chinese aliexpress computer, the thing is, originally in normal distros what i used to do to split my front and rear channels was by creating a software patch with hdajackretask, and i had to do such because my computer wont detect my external speakers neither are listed as sinks if i have my headphones connected, as well doesnt create any sink at any case because both are detected as lineout, both only one is assigneed and the other wont work which is usually always my headphones. what i normally do is a hdajackretask for both to be speaker with one on the rear and another in the front to have a 4.0 output and make new sinks with pactl, here idk how to do the hdajackretask stuff without jackretask and without being a patch, is there anything i could possibly do or should i just move on?
