Hi, sorry for the delay…,

First, I think it’s best to `disable()` the `audio::Context` before changing the output. Ideally this wouldn’t be necessary but to be safe…

Then, can you also try a `Context::printGraphToString()` and paste the output, when you can no longer hear anything?

Lastly, try placing a breakpoint in the [OutputDeviceNodeWasapi’s render method](https://github.com/cinder/Cinder/blob/35e555f1c631cc58a7f2bf3ea916ddbdf74ba477/src/cinder/audio/msw/ContextWasapi.cpp#L581) and see if that is firing.

cheers,  
Rich
