[Desktop] Select default sound device for Spotify Connect

[sanraal]

Currently Spotify defaults to using the default sound device when launched, it would be neat if you could choose which sound device you want to use instead in the options screen.

Thanks

I have a Jabra headset, that is connected to Notebook & iPhone at the same time.
I would love to be able to switch back to local speaker on my Notebook or iPone when I am in a call on the other device. 

On my Windows notebook I now created a shortcut on my desktop for C:\Windows\explorer.exe ms-settings:apps-volume
But I would still like to be able to do this from within the app from my iPhone, when I don't have my notebook to play music in the background.

PS: What do you have to do to get an idea implemented when even 5000+ votes in 10 years is put on 'not right now'? 
Yes there are workarounds, but I think over the years this is still relevant!

Yes it's not right now because everyone listens to music in their crappy little phone speakers all the time. You've got much more important things to implement, like spending months slightly changing the font.

That is an abysmal answer to an obviously hugely wanted feature. Either it's technically difficult for you to impllement (unlikely) or there is some political/financial incentive that you are prioritising over your customers best interestes - and that's pretty poor to say the least.

I vote for this, because I wish only to play through my beocreate sound device via spotify connect!

Agree this is a must feature for music player apps that is Spotify. 

I want to force Spotify app to use my sound interface that is used only for music, while all PC sounds should use Default device that is another sound interface ( PC integrated sound)

We use an Android tablet to control a Sonos device for music. We use the Spotify app because the UI is far better than Spotify. However, every time we start the app, it defaults to playing on the tablet.

We need to be able to set the Sonos as the default device.
