Hi,
I have not heard the utility or command line to switch the default audio
playback device. I think you may do some programming for a quick
application.
For the API to implement this, it appears that this is a Development
related request and would best be address in the Developer newsgroups. I
have provided the link below:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp
Or you may ask for developer support:
http://support.microsoft.com/directory/directory/phonepro.asp?sd=msdn
According to my knowledge, you may some help for DDK (Driver Develop Kit)
newsgroup.
Have a nice day!
Thanks & Regards,

| I have two soundcards in my PC, a semi-pro card (M-Audio Audiophile)
| and an Audigy for playing games.
|
| When i want to play a game it's quite a faff having to open
| control-panel, then 'Sounds and Audio Devices" and change the sound
| playback device. And then to remember to change it back again after
| the game.
|
| Is this dialog a simple GUI for a command-line utility, 'cos then i
| would be able to write a simple .bat file to toggle cards...(In an
| ideal world it would be... i.e. linux)
|
| If there isn't a command-line utility... does anybody know what the
| relevant functions in the WinAPI are so i could come up with a quick
| app?
