Headphones stuck as "Default Communication Device"
I haven't had any problems at all with Windows 7 until yesterday, when my headphones became stuck as the "Default Communication Device" and I can only use the Speakers and Dual Headphones to listen to my computer. I can still use my headphones when they're plugged in, but there's a noticeable loss of sound quality and I bought a rather expensive pair of headphones for a reason, you know. Up until yesterday I could switch from my headphones to my speakers as the default audio device no problem, but as of yesterday my headphones are absolutely stuck as "Default Communication Device" which is kind of ridiculous, because I don't use my computer to talk to anybody.
I have an HP DV-7 1279WM Laptop.
