Hello everyone,
I would like to suggest a small but useful improvement for WSJT-X
regarding audio handling.
Currently, WSJT-X uses the system’s default audio output to play alert
sounds.
In some setups, this can lead to problems: I have noticed, both
personally and among other operators, that when using the same audio
interface for radio transmission and for WSJT-X, the alert sounds may
accidentally be transmitted over the air.
I have observed this behavior both under Windows and Linux.
To prevent this issue, I propose adding an option in the Audio tab of
the configuration menu to allow users to select a specific output device
for alert sounds, independently of the device used for radio transmissions.
For reference, Fldigi has provided this capability for a long time,
which helps avoid this kind of problem.
Thank you very much for considering this request, and thank you for all
the excellent work on WSJT-X.
73,
