Hello eivind,
The underlying structure of Hauptwerk v5's audio routing is the same as v4's inasmuch as ranks are routed to (mixer bus) groups (the equivalent of v4's audio output groups), groups contain primary mixer buses (the equivalent of v4's primary audio outputs), and mixer buses have audio device channels selected for them.
Here's an excerpt from the user guide ('
Audio routing and impulse response reverb part 2 ...: Overview and key concepts for advanced use', page 182 in the current v5.0.0 version):
Conceptually, a pipe/rank’s audio flows through all four of the above screens in the order above, i.e.:
Rank voicing/panning -> Rank routing to audio mixer bus groups -> Audio mixer bus groups -> Audio mixer
(... and then to the General settings | Audio device ... screen.)
Hence if you want to route different ranks to different device channels, then you need to make sure that you have configured appropriate primary mixer buses for them (and ideally named them sensibly, so that you can identify them easily), and then set up groups for them (putting the relevant primary buses in the groups, and naming the groups sensibly). You can then route ranks to those groups.
It isn't sufficient in v5 (or v4) just to rename a bus/output (or audio device channel) -- you need to configure/name an appropriate group for it as well, before you can route ranks appropriately to it.
Please see also this thread for some tutorials:

Audio routing and impulse response reverb ...' chapters in the main Hauptwerk user guide (pages 166-201 in the current v5.0.0 version). Also, for those used to v4's routing functionality, the summary in the '
Changes in version 5.0.0 above version 4.2.1: Advanced Edition only: audio routing, multiple audio output perspectives, and associated voicing changes' section in the release notice (pages 5-8 in the v5.0.0 version) explains the changes and how the new routing functionality and terminology relates to those from v4:
https://www.hauptwerk.com/documentation/In the main Hauptwerk user guide's routing sections, '
Example 6: multi-channel audio with 24 (or more) speakers configured as stereo pairs in 3 groups of 4 pairs each, with different organ divisions routed to different groups, optionally plus a sub-woofer, optionally with an additional pair of ‘rear’ speakers for surround-sound, optionally with an additional pair of speakers as an ‘aux reverb mix’ with added reverb (which can be bypassed, or its wetness adjusted, on a per-organ basis)' (pages 196-201) gives an example of routing different divisions to different groups. (If you only want to use a single stereo pair of speakers for each division, then you would only want one mixer bus, i.e. speaker pair, in each of your groups/divisions).
E.g. perhaps start by reading through the release notice section, which explains how v5's audio routing relates to v4's.

A set of 18 impulse response reverbs should have been installed automatically by Hauptwerk v5's installer.
Are you using macOS or Windows? If macOS, did you completely un-install/delete v4 before installing v5, as covered here?:
