> I only do deliberately

IDK, when I used a Mac at work ~2y ago every time I connected my headphones it would prefer them as the audio source. I have a USB mic always plugged in but I couldn't find any way to prevent it from switching to the headphone mic. I always had to many switch the input source after plugging in my headphones before I joined a call or something.

This is the exact use case I have, and the frustration of not being able to select what I want made me create the app. I'm really surprised this functionality doesn't come with the Mac, but I couldn't find a workaround that didn't involve a manual switch somewhere.

I was shocked as well because on Linux this just works. It remembers what device you last selected and prefers it.
