Changing System Audio Output - Notifications to Apps?

Hi guys,


In my Mac application I am changing the system audio output device so that applications will send audio to this new device (Soundflower). That part is easy. The problem is that some applications don't respect that change for some reason, and instead keep sending audio to the previous device (speakers, for example).

I'm curious why it works for some applications and not others. I imagine that somehow the applications that don't switch to the new device are somehow explicitly setting up their audio streams to send to device that was the system output when they launched, and ignoring any notifications.

Are there any notifications? Is there something I can do to make those apps switch?


Thanks,
