As the topic says, when i start my computer or after a reboot, Synapse will auto-change my output and input devices to my Nari Ultimate headset (which is mostly turned OFF). This has also started happening after waking the computer from sleep.

Why they make this default behavior (yet again, the same happened about 1 year ago) is beyond me.

I am connected to an AVR 7.1 sound system and i only use the headset at night. the AVR is my default and desired output device, and my webcam mic is my desired input device, and that is how it should be. I can change output/input to the headset on my own,

However, changing input to a headset that is TURNED OFF randomly after waking the computer or every time after a restart/boot is really getting on my nerves.

I guess i have to run some PowerShell script to override this unwanted behavior instead of waiting for Razer to “fix” what is clearly intended behavior

Just repeating the failure a year ago by overriding users’ default settings is horrible and will alienate a lot of customers
