Jeff,
So are you saying that it can't be done?

The HAL registers to receive kIOMessageServiceIsTerminated messages for
IOAudioEngine objects to know when a device goes away.

That said, there apparently is a rogue process somewhere on the system
that has an extra retain on the IOAudio objects. I haven't been able to
identify what this process is because it doesn't appear to do this
through the HAL.
