Describe the issue you're reporting

It looks like the OTLP exporter’s default load balancing is intended to be round_robin (see the related discussion: #10298).

However, due to the code around this line, the default can end up behaving like pick_first: factory.go In addition, unless the change to use NewClient is completed (see #13632), the resolver scheme remains passthrough, which means round_robin will not actually take effect.

Proposed action:

• either call resolver.SetDefaultScheme("dns") so the DNS resolver is used, or complete the NewClient migration so that the proper resolver scheme is applied and round_robin works as intended. ref. go-grpc resolver
• Remove this line
