If your monitor configuration isn't changing, it won't know which Audio Device to load. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like you just want to switch audio devices with a hotkey? If so, there are a couple of things you can do. On the Settings > Functions tab, you can assign key combinations to the "Set Next/Previous Playback Device as Default" functions.

Alternatively, you can load a specific audio device using Scripted Functions. If you'd like to do that, please let me know and I'll send over a sample Scripted Function.

If I totally missed the mark, let me know! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/i-hate-dfs-uiux-or-how-i-cant-get-a-monitor-profile-to-setup-correctly/?ID=8f9ee2e3-09c6-4681-87ae-0d3157d4f2ce Fri, 07 Oct 2016 23:55:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/i-hate-dfs-uiux-or-how-i-cant-get-a-monitor-profile-to-setup-correctly/?ID=8f9ee2e3-09c6-4681-87ae-0d3157d4f2ce DisplayFusion I've got three Audio devices: A wireless headset, a wired headset and a monitor with speakers.

The ability to use DF to change between those using a monitor profile was a selling point for me. It sounds great in theory, but in practice it makes me violent.

I created one profile called "Blue". It's for my wired headset. When I go to click on the arrow on the save button to create a NEW profile, I get an error dialog saying that profile is already saved.

Dafuq?

So, in order to create a new profile, I have to change something. So I unchecked the wallpaper box and created a profile for my wireless headset ("Void") and unchecked screensaver to create the other ("HDMI").

Now, can I go back and check those unchecked boxes and save them? NOPE. The minute I check the box, it suddenly "detects" the Blue profile and switches to it, preventing me from saving to the correct profile because Blue HAS ALREADY BEEN SAVED.

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *boom, head exploded*

At this point, I'm half tempted to copy the program onto a CD, uninstall the program from my computer, then take my gun and the CD to the local firing range and shoot the CD until I feel better. ]]>
