Be careful with trying to use "DirectSound" on Windows NT. High enough
versions of DirectX to utilise "DirectSound" are unsupported; so:
-- Welcome to Director --
put the soundDevice
-- "MacroMix"
put the soundDeviceList
-- ["MacroMix", "QT3Mix", "DirectSound"]
put switchSoundDevice("DirectSound")
-- 1
put the soundDevice
-- "MacroMix"
--------------------------
The handler Rob gave will try to set the soundDevice, but will fail. Having
set it, you need to recheck it to ensure it was successful - iff (and only
if) you are trying to set it to "DirectSound" AND you are on a Winnt
platform.
Hope that helps,
Sean.
