This is a problem that bugged me in Firefox that was only recently fixed, so it sucks to see that Pale Moon still has this problem.
In Windows 8.1 (And probably Windows 8 & 7 too), switching the default playback device in | Control Panel > Sound | doesn't make whatever audio is playing within Pale Moon switch to outputting to the new playback device. This is luckily fixed with a quick page refresh, but this is a nuisance and should be fixed relatively easily, considering that Firefox fixed this problem recently.

Do you have a bugzilla bug number for this recent Firefox fix?

I can't find anything at bugzilla that says "Yeah, this was a bug, it's been fixed"Moonchild wrote:Do you have a bugzilla bug number for this recent Firefox fix?
There are a couple of bug reports complaining about the issue persisting, though.

By searching "default sound device bugzilla mozilla" on google I found bug #698079 It has dependencies and likely the refactoring factor is in play.

I've updated libcubeb which is the library governing this to a later version that includes the fix for the bug Tobin found.
It'll be in the next version of Pale Moon, so you could try again at that point.
