Re: does anyone know how to detect the default sound device?Date:
Thu, May 6, 2010 7:36:48 pmHi Chip,
I think you could do it indirectly through the SAPI 5 COM interface,
which is pretty much ubiquitous across modern Windows installations.
I'm afraid I don't have any sample code for you, but I'm sure I've
read about sound card enumerations somewhere in the SAPI SDK. It is
possible to interact with at least the basic elements of this SDK with
VBScript.
Hope this helps.

does anyone know a way, accessible via VBScript, to detect either the
default sound device (I'd poll for it changing regularly), or a way to be
notified when the default audio device is changed?
thanks.
