Onderwerp: [rsgb-lf-group] Changing default soundcard in Windows in software

 

I know there are plenty of software authors here ...

So asking in case anyone knows .

How can I change the default soundcard (playback or recording) from INSIDE a piece of software

I want to control which device a .wav file is played back from using the basic sndPlaySound call (or it's equivalents in high level languages).   I really don't want to have to go into the whole WAVEOUT saga just  to use something other than the default soundcard allocated at the time.

I know the default can be set the Sound Mixer, but this is a need to do it from inside software.   Preferably via a WinAPI call
