I don't get any OSD when switching with hotkeys in windows 10. I do however get them when i right click the icon. Device always changes tho just no OSD. Tried enableing and disabling OSD multiple times

That seems to be a problem with the settings.xml:

Go to the installation path of AudioSwitch and open Settings.xml. Locate the line <QuickSwitchShowOSD>false</QuickSwitchShowOSD> and change it to "true".

After that OSD should be displayed while switching via hotkeys.

€: Sry, forgot to markup code.

It's set too true, still no luck.

There seems to be another issue with the OSD not being displayed on-top of other applications. Minimize all applications and see if the OSD is shown on the desktop.

Happens when on desktop as well.

Had the same problem now with v2.1.3: When switching devices via hotkey no OSD was displayed.

Reason: In settings.xml the line for hotkey assignment looks like this:

<Hotkey Function="NextPlaybackDevice" ModifierKeys="Shift LWin" HotKey="A" ShowOSD="false" />

Solution: Exit AudioSwitch, set ShowOSD="true", save, and start AudioSwitch. If the OSD still doesn't show up, exit AudioSwitch and check settings.xml again. If it got reverted to "false" just set it to "true" once more, save and make settings.xml write-protected. Then start AudioSwitch and check the OSD. In case it works, make settings.xml writable again (otherwise there will be a unhandled exception on next exit).
