The CIA chips are not involved in sound routing - that's purely a matter of the MCU and circuitry of the C64 Reloaded MK2.
What happens if you put both chips on the same channel? That's the situation that we test here in the QC procedure: A stereo speaker is connected to that 3.5mm connector and the board shall only get the warranty sticker if both speakers output sound. Since there is a human factor involved, I cannot exclude an error on our side.
What does the menu item "Chipset Info" (I) reports when the unrecognized SID is installed? That makes the "why" a little easier to guess. And it will work as 8580 SID is the fallback mode (as it requires the lowest supply voltage).
SwinSID is not recognized, because the detection depends on very specific electrical behavior of the various SID chips. I expect the SwinSID to still work though, as it should not care about the supply voltage it gets.
The last reply was more than 365 days ago, this thread is most likely obsolete. It is recommended to create a new thread instead.
