Summary	0005158: TDM dosent dynamically detect default sound device
Description	in this instance I alternate between sound card output and my bluetooth headphones, the issue is TDM will only output sound to the device listed as windows system default upon startup. If I then change the default sound device to my bluetooth headphones from the sound card, TDM will not dynamically detect the change. Most contemporary games I play will dynamically detect the change of sound device.

It seems that GLFW does not have any audio device detection but SDL does ( I think SDL was voted against due to bloat ? ) Without SDL, we would need to have "WM_DEVICECHANGE" detection in Windows and use "Udev" device detection in Linux. ( Not sure about Mac ? )

nbohr1more 07.10.2022 16:28 developer ~0015313	Hmm... The github repo for GLFW has an include for dbt.h ( the library that registers WM_DEVICECHANGE ) and even included DBT_ events. I guess we currently don't use that part of GLFW but maybe we could add it? https://github.com/glfw/glfw/blob/3a60992a418aad88717db32353bec22e8bb7dab3/src/win32_platform.h https://github.com/glfw/glfw/blob/d299d9f78857e921b66bdab42c7ea27fe2e31810/src/win32_init.c
