Thanks, Clemens,

Here's my code that opens the device:


    int driverID = ::ao_default_driver_id();
    ao_sample_format format = { 0 };
    format.bits = 16;
    format.channels = inNumChannels;
    format.rate = inRate;
    format.byte_format = AO_FMT_LITTLE;
	
    mDevice = ::ao_open_live(driverID, &format, NULL);
    if (mDevice == NULL)
    {
        LogDebug("Error opening output device");
    }

I'm not sure where the change in default device would come from.
