Uinstalling doesn't fully remove EarTrumpet / Leaves sound settings all messed up

[Etrit1]

Summary

An example of what happened:

I set program 1 to play through my headphones and program 2 through my laptop speakers. It worked great! Then I decided that I wanted to use only one sound source at a time and uninstalled EarTrumpet.

Well, that left me with ONLY being able to get sound through my laptop speakers even with my headphones plugged in. I looked into the settings on my sound card and the default was set to be the headphones but the sound was still coming out of my laptop speakers.

This is REALLY not good.

This needs to be fixed ASAP.

I fixed my issue by just reinstalling EarTrumpet and rearranging stuff again. But, uninstalling should just put stuff back to normal.

Steps to reproduce

Change programs to be different sound sources, then uninstall EarTrumpet

Hey there! It's certainly a great idea, but there's no OS facility for us to run any sort of code at uninstall that I'm aware of. I'll double-check.

In the future type Win+X, select Settings, then go to System > Sound > App volume and device preferences (or Volume mixer on Windows 11). At the bottom of this page, click the Reset button.

Oh to the not being any OS functionality. Thanks for the info on how to reset things :-)

Maybe post something about that need on the project homepage? :-)
