Voicemeeter Potato - Cannot select correct A1 Output Device

Post by atarashii »

Hello, I have a paid Voicemeeter potato license and i have been happy with it so far. however, recently i changed my A1 device to monitor speakers. In the screenshot attached, there are 2 monitor speakers because I have 2 identical monitors. I want to choose the monitor that is listed as the 2nd item in the list. However, every time I press the 2nd item, it stays on the 3rd item selected. This issue does not happen with any of the other items in the list, such as the headphones, line 1, etc (I can choose them without it going back to the 3rd item). I tried restarting my computer, and also restarting the app, but it doesnt work. :(

I appreciate the help!

You may simply give a different name to one of them. then it will work.
because Voicemeeter is using the public name of the audio pin to select it, so if several audio device present the same pin name, Voicemeeter could finally select not the one you really selected, but the first one it found with the wanted name.

Hello Vincent, thank you so much for your help! I'm pleased to say it worked :D I think that is the first time I ever renamed an audio device! I didn't even know you could do that. All is good now!
