■ PC Specs

Custom build (occurred on both Windows 7 and Windows 10)

Problem: When moving from one audio source (PC Speakers to PC Headphones, or PC Speakers to PC Built-In Monitor speakers; as examples) in Windows, the game will not follow suit. It will remain on the original audio source from when it first booted.

Tested Methods: Attempted swapping default audio in Windows 7 and Windows 10. Game will not recognize the change, and has no menu allowing a manual change of audio output.

Potential Solution:
Adding an "Audio Source" drop-down option in game allowing the player to select the audio source to output game audio. This could work similarly to how the game currently handles video and identifies all screens connected to a PC via dropdown menu.

Existing Pattern:
Game must be fully quit and the Launcher must be rebooted entirely to recognize another audio source.
