Return default playback device

[jasonniesen]

Is there a way to return the default playback device? I would need a method for both XP and anything later.

I am trying to write a batch file that will automatically set up an audio repeater. I need to set the Wave Out to whatever the default playback device is. By default, the program is set to 'None'.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
