Doug,

I have found another user, who off list, sent me his report of using vista
and audio switching not working for him as well.

I think at this point this trade-off has hit everyone except windows 7 users
with a penalty.

That is correctly.  Window-Eyes 7.2 (or 7.11 with the Eloquence patch) has
greatly increased the responsiveness of the speech.  There is no comparison
between the two.  But in doing this Windows XP users lost the ability to
automatically switch when the default sound card changed on the fly.  So
yes, Windows XP users regressed in this respect but we feel the far superior
response time is worth it.  Also as Aaron stated, Windows Vista and Windows
7 will do the auto switching.

Regards,
Doug
