If I try to switch devices on the eqmac client or the Sound menu of the Mac eqmac hangs to the beachball and has to be 'force quit' from Activity Monitor. This happened occasionally until the recent updates when it changed to constant, eqmac is unusable on my Mac.

Steps to Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour (feel free to change the placeholder as you need):

1. Go to eqmac
2. Click on device selection list
3. Scroll down to select another device
4. no switch eqmac 'beachballs'

Expected behaviour
It should switch output devices

• Audio device used for playback: DELL U3421WE monitor speakers/Jabra Speak 510
• Audio transmission interface: monitor is USB-C, Speak 510 is USB
• macOS Version: 21.2

I reckon this is a duplicate of #636 that was reported some time ago

EDIT: Correct issue number, thanks @nitsujri
