Audio Playback Device Settable by Control Panel

Since version 2.0.1 and in the 2.1 nightly build, VLC no longer adapts when the default playback device changes.

To reproduce:

  1. Play a video in VLC.
  2. Change the default playback device using (control panel->sound->playback)
  3. VLC continues to use the prior default device.

As mentioned VLC used to track the current default device. I don't know if this change was intended or is a bug. If intended it would be nice to be able to select the device from VLC.
