I am looking to push a script that changes audio input/output if a specific device is detected connected to the Thunderbolt interface. For example, we have an external mic speaker device in our meeting rooms and currently end users must remember to change settings. Is there something that will change settings automatically when they plug it in?

Thanks for your assistance!

@accm I'm curious what your conference setup looks like, we're doing something similar. Would you mind going into more detail? Did you end up using switchaudio or go with something different?

I am working on a similar project that i need to scan for multiple audio devices and select the correct device. How do you pipe the code from -a variable and set the device?
