Question

UI Panel to Change Audio Hardware?

I'm not sure this is even possible, but does anyone know how to create a UI Panel to switch between different Audio Hardware preferences? I switch between headphones and speakers quite a bit. Using the pulldown is tedious. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I also have this request. I switch between speakers and headphones at least 5 times a day. Every time I have to go into the After Effects and Premiere preferences to change the default. It's ridiculous!

Do you mind showing/explaining what you are changing (or needs to be changed) in Audio Hardware? This might be just me on MacBook, but I don't see anything that could be configured there. There's only one CoreAudio choice inside Device Class dropdown. The same goes for Default Output - only Built-in Output available. Are you having more options? Do you mind attaching few screenshots?

I've used Macs a lot, and I never had this problem. It's only on Windows PCs that the default audio output hardware needs to be changed every time you plug in or unplug the headphones.
