Virtual sink info added on advanced_usage.rst

[Chaoscontrol]

Description

Just added a some extra information to make the use of virtual sink easier for basic users.

It's my first ever PR, and I'm not a dev, so forgive me if the structure or formatting is not adequate. I just wanted to contribute with the piece of info to help others sort the issue out, after my own struggle. There was also several posts on Discord about this topic, so I think it's going to be useful to have this solved in the docs.

For a virtual audio sink in Windows you only need the VB-Cable driver, which I'm assuming is packaged along side VoiceMeeter.

Unfortunately VB-Cable didn't work. I tested it, and it didn't, and other users reported exactly the same in this thread in Discord.

(I hadn't restarted the PC when I tested though, so it might had worked if I did.)

[Chaoscontrol]

Double checked. It indeed works with just VB-Cable, as long as you restart the PC first.

Thanks, this was on my todo list. I also use virtual audio cable.

I amended based on @Bobbar, and tested myself that VB Cable indeed worked fine as long as you restart the PC.

Thank you for the PR. I've added improvements to the virtual sink section in #1000, along with application examples so I will close this one.
