Selectable audio device defaulting #32
Comments
@MasterRahool does macOS also revert to another device also? Or just LosslessSwitcher? |
Technically when this happens only LosslessSwitcher is changing from selected to default, there's no interruption in my listening, but I suspect the OS is rechecking the device in the background i did a test, with the EQ software killed so eliminate that variable. LosslessSwitcher is selected to my DAC, and in the OS I'm outputting to my display. I toggle back n forth between my dac and display as outputs, and LS stays on selected (my dac). I then click on Airplay, and LS switches to default device. I think something similar is happening with my EQ, the OS rechecks and routes to the EQ (a virtual device) and then LS stumbles back to Default from Selected |
Probably not easy to fix, I reckon. |
Hi @MasterRahool, Please try build 9 (https://github.com/vincentneo/LosslessSwitcher/releases/tag/1.1.0-beta6), and update me if this helps. Thanks! |
Sorry to report but it didnt work at all. Wasn't switching at all for me at first. I was constantly trying different bitrate tracks and then checking switcher to see if the device or rate changed, and I did notice it was now (sometimes) selecting both my DAC and default at once but even then it wasn't switching properly when it suddenly would trigger. I even had an issue where I finally got it to go from 44 to 192, then I selected another 192k track and it went back to 44.1 as if it only liked some 192 albums and not others :/ I've personally gone back to Build 7 so the switching part at least functions fine (I noted build 8 was giving me a headache) |
Functionally its operating like build 7 for me, that is, switching fine when my device is selected On first run I noticed the same "dac and default both checked" As for staying on the selected device, I found no difference. If I opened up MIDI, it would switch from my dac back to default (which is my EQ), and tracks would stop switching until I manually selected the DAC again I tested again with the EQ software off like in my previous description, and then changed my system audio to an Airplay device, and LosslessSwitcher also changed to Airplay from my DAC (ie, to system default and didnt stay on my dac) but had check boxes on both default and dac again |
RE: Build 11 Only testing on my laptop right now, but doing the toggle test between macbook speakers (selected) and multiple airplay (default) devices, and so far it's working fine. Going into MIDI settings didnt reset it to default like before, and the macbook speakers were changing properly even with MIDI open. And this is with my EQ running, so it competing for attention isnt changing anything. I also noticed a new improvement I guess you added? Now when opening LLS it remembers my selected device. One less thing to fuss about! I'll update if there's a behavior change with my DAC |
So @vincentneo so far looking solid, can't find an issue. Can now set & forget, big QoL upgrade for my use. |
Glad to hear! 🙂 |
This may just be because I use an EQ software and a weird glitch, but this feature reverts to Default Device constantly. For example, if I open MIDI Setup to verify a bitrate, my selected device will reset. Sometimes I look up and see it just randomly went back to default from my chosen DAC. Really wish there was a way to make it stick to my DAC.
