Is there any way to specifically select which audio device you want SM to use? #2242

Hi, I've been trying to get SM to use a specific audio device (I'm using Voice Meeter and I want it to output sound on the AUX input instead of the regular input).

I tried messing around with SoundDevice in Preferences.ini but I can't seem to give it any sort of value for it to do anything.
I have also tried the windows per-application settings and it doesn't seem to adhere to that either, it just seems to use whatever the "default" audio device is at the time of start up.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

At least on Linux, you can use syntax like SoundDevice=hw:0 and SoundDevice=hw:1 and so on, to specify your desired audio hardware device, where the number corresponds to the device's enumeration in ALSA. When I've done this, my PC's aux port is 0, and audio over HDMI is 1. I don't have additional audio devices, but if I did, I assume they'd be 2 and 3 and etc.

I don't know if StepMania supports a similar syntax on Windows, but you could try this.
