[REQUEST] Program to make an output audio device default when connected

(1/4) > >>

Zero3K:
It would be nice if someone made a program that has a list of output audio devices that were recently used by the OS and let the user select one to use as default when it is connected until it is disconnected, which then will have it use the previous used one as default, then repeat that process when the selected one is connected again.

HwapX:
I'm working on a prototype, but it uses a priority list, sets the default device to the first one connected, and updates it when connecting a new one or disconnecting.


Edit

I've done some experiments and reading the Windows documentation it seems that what you want is almost the default behavior.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/audio/default-audio-endpoint-selection#the-endpoint-timestamp-property-in-windows-7

Here I set my speaker as default device, I plugged in my headphone and set it as default, when I remove my headphone Windows sets the speaker as default and when I plug in my headphone it sets it as default

Zero3K:
It doesn't work for me the last time I tried it in Windows 10.

HwapX:
Alright, tomorrow I think I'll have something for you to try out.

What do you think about the "priority list"? Does it solves your problem?

Zero3K:
It will if it sets the headphones as default when they are connected and then sets the speakers as default when the headphones are disconnected. By the way, others are also having this issue (take a look at https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/default-audio-device-does-not-switch-in-windows-10/9a39d339-5ff4-4db3-aa39-4b51821a6965 for one such example).
