Bug ID: 54779
           Summary: Wine does not detect audio output device changes until
                    after restarting the application on Mac OS X
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.4
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Mac OS X
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]

I'm using Wine on Mac OS X 10.15.7 (19H2026). Whenever I connect my bluetooth
headphones to my Mac and set them as output device, Wine applications will not
detect the change until after restarting the application. Every other Mac
application will detect the change as soon as its made.

If you need anything else, feel free to tell me.

Interesting, we may need to register a listener to handle the case when the
system output changes:

Can this bug at least get the "NEW" status?

Sure; but note that it doesn't change the workflow much on the Wine side.
