REQUEST: Priority Devices List

[rasitensar]

Hello,
FxSound is one of the most useful apps that I use on pc. But I use multiple audio outputs so priority list is a must.
My monitor has a speaker, I use an old headphone to use its microphone on laptop and I usually connect bluetooth earbuds. When my laptop goes to sleep and I open my laptop again, fxsound automatically changes current device to my monitors speaker.
A priority list like, “always change current device to x device when connected” and then 2nd place 3rd and so on.
Thank you for your work

Since the default output device requirement is coming from multiple users, I can add an option to address this. I will think of a way to make this option complement the existing option for automatic output switching.
