If I plug in my headphones while TSS is running, the sound doesn't come through the headphones until I restart DROD.

(Taking a guess, maybe SDL checks for sound devices on initialization only, not when devices are connected?)

I think the broader issue is that DROD never checks if the sound output device is changed (on Mac, although possibly other platforms).

So as a test, if I change the sound output device from internal headphones to external speakers, other apps switch the sound to the speakers, but DROD continues playing sound through the internal headphones.

This continues to happen in the latest Mac build 5.1.1.624.

I wonder if this issue is related to the one I reported here.

This (admittedly minor) issue continues to happen in the latest Mac build 5.1.1.740.
