That's why i said it's a real problem. Firstly, Windows 7 has different audio endpoint mapping system. Audio endpoints can now be changed on the fly, whilst the app is still running.
In vista, the app readout the registry and latched on to the given endpoints. After that you needed to close the app, change the endpoint and restart.
Since 7, the registry endpoints don't point to the real hardware but to virtual hardware. This gives you the possibility (which for me is long time overdue, should be in vista sp2) to switch from headphones to speakers or such without shuttingdown the sound app.
Furthermore, for every chipset there are different settings. What works for one doesn't have to work for another even on the same computer.
If it works you're in luck if it doesn't......
