To start this off, most of the time i am using my Bluetooth headset. Most of the time i keep it on a good charge, not to mention it charges fast and keeps the charge for a long time. Anyway, when my headset tells me it's on a low battery, i just turn it off and put it on the charger. However, my audio devices seem to get confused and won't switch over the sound from the games i would be playing at the moment, such as Minecraft and Runescape (OSRS and RS3). The only way to fix this is to close and reopen the program. While this is a simple solution, this can be a test of patience with the wait time (especially with Minecraft and loading all my mods).

 

I have tried switching the device before and after it's disconnected, both ended with the same results. Reconnecting the device doesn't bring the sound back either. Also connecting the headphones while sound from the games is still playing through the speakers won't switch over to the new device. it will keep playing through the speakers. Browsers and media programs switch between devices just fine.

 

I want to know if there is a third party program that can switch the main audio output device to tell my computer to play all sound through that. Or if not that, then some other solution.
