What Change Audio Device does

A native Windows PowerToys Command Palette extension that allows users to quickly view, select, and switch default audio input (microphones) and output (speakers, headphones) devices directly from the Command Palette interface.

Features: - Quick Audio Switching: Change the default Windows input or output audio device with a single keystroke or click. - Console, Multimedia & Communications Routing: Programmatically switches devices for all roles (Console, Multimedia, and Communications) to ensure apps like Discord, Teams, and games update correctly. - Dynamic Device List: Queries active audio endpoints dynamically using low-level Windows Core Audio APIs (WASAPI). - Active Device Highlighting: Displays the currently active/default device with an (Active) indicator.
