I'm using the SDR Play / RSP1 with HDSDR software.   With the RSP1 
connected to the IF OUT I find that nothing else is required.  
Configured in the software,  via OmniRig for Sync to Rig and Sync from 
Rig, I have full point and click mouse control.   Click on a signal and 
the radio goes there.   I find this makes for a very economical 
configuration, and it provides a 2nd receiver, if desired.    This 
allows one to listen to the DX frequency while maintaining  a watch on 
the call frequency.   It also allows one to monitor their own signal 
during transmit.

No splitter is required and it does not affect the K3S receiver 
performance.    One cable is connected from the RSP1 to the K3S IF OUT 
and one cable connected from the RSP1 to the computer.   The K3S also 
connects to the computer with one USB cable.  Simple, clean, and 
economical.
