You can change the default input and output devices on macOS in System Preferences or via API, but this isn’t what I want to do. I want to be able to capture audio from the non-default input and play audio to the non-default output. There are plenty of reasons to want to do this on the Mac which can have any number of audio devices connected at a time.
