DONE: A shortcut/hotkey to switch between audio devices?

How could I make switching between the Realtek device and the Sennheiser USB headset really fast? :)

Normally, to do this, I have to do the following:

1. Click Start, Control Panel.
2. Open Sounds & Audio Devices
3. Select "Audio" tab
4. From "Sound Playback" devices choose the wanted device from the dropdown list
5. Click Apply, then OK.
6. Close control panel

In short, it's a huge pain in the ass and this really is something that I want to be able to do on the fly. Any ideas?

A Macro would do it quickly

What kind of macro?

e.g. this command below opens the Audio tab in your Multimedia Devices applet.

--- ---RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL mmsys.cpl,,2
maybe someone here can figure out how to change the items in the combo-box via AHK...

That's no bad start. No bad start at all. Thanks! Before we figure out the real deal, how could I turn the command you came up with into a shortcut that, when clicked, for example from the quicklaunch bar, would get me to that window?
