Sorry, I don't know.  I didn't write Win32::Sound; I only keep it up-to-date
with new releases of Perl (if necessary).

Looking at the docs (and the source), it looks like you can use
Win32::Sound::WaveOut to switch output devices by calling CloseDevice()
followed by OpenDevice($id), where $id should be the index in your
@devices list.

Feel free to discuss this some more on the [email protected] mailing list,
instead of in a bug report.  And if you get it to work, maybe send some
patch to the documentation to make it easier for the next person to figure
it out. :)
