I have Windows 7 with an Auzentech X-Fi soundcard. I have the option in the Windows Sound control panel of selecting a default audio device, and in order to use DTS Connect (useful for real-time discrete audio via SPDIF for 3d games), I have to select the analog speaker device, despite my using a phsyical SPDIF connection--this is a requirement of Dolby Digital Live/DTS Connect devices. I get no sound in DOSBox unless I enable DTS encoding, which I don't wish to do considering DOS games are all stereo and I'd rather default to simple SPDIF stereo output.
Is there a way I can specify which audio device is to be used (SPDIF rather than my currently selected default device in the Sound CP) like there is for selecting a default MIDI device with mixer /listmidi and specifying midiconfig=[0,1,2] in conf? I can't seem to find wave equivalent of this config function, but it would be very useful for Vista/Windows 7 users. I hate having to change my default audio device in the control panel just for DOSBox.
