Description
StreamDeck-AudioSwitch is a C++ plugin for the Elgato StreamDeck for setting the default audio device.
It supports:
- setting input or output device
- setting default device or communication device
- either one-button-per-device, or one button to toggle between two devices
For example, this can be useful to switch between headphones and speakers if they are on different sound cards (e.g. USB speakers or USB headphones).

Notes
This uses undocumented and unsupported Windows APIs. These have apparently worked since Windows 7, but they might stop working at any time or have unexpected side effects.
FAQ
Changing both 'communication' and 'default'
Use a multi-action switch, not a normal multi-action:
