Okay, this one has been driving me nuts for years.. I had hoped the update this week with all the audio changes would sort it out, but it hasn't.

PLEASE CCP, fix whatever it is the breaks when you change audio devices. I switch between my USB Headset and my Speakers regularly, and every time there's a 50/50 chance I'm gonna to deaf with feedback as soon as, or shortly after, I make the change. I had hopes that this would change after this update, but alas, it's the same old same old. The only way to fix it is to go into the ESC menu and turn off and on again the audio service.

This might not be an issue running a single client, well, it is an issue, but not nearly as annoying as when you are running several clients and trying to find out which one is breaking your eardrums.

Please, find a way to fix this.
