Actually from how I understand the code you should always get what you
setup as "Preferred device".
In case you have "default" as "Preferred device", it should select the
MT32 Device if MDT_PREFER_MT32 is set, EXCEPT you have setup the MT32
Device as "default", which marks it as non-present currently (when I
understand the code right at least).
I noticed some other strange bits though: When I overwrite the subtitles
speed in a game, just take KYRA with its built in menu, I correctly get
"Override global audio settings" displayed in the "Edit Game..." dialog.
Now all devices do not default to the "system default" but to "default"
(note that a "default" here does not use the settings setup in the
"Options" menu), thus if I click "OK" in that dialog, it will just
overwrite my audio device settings and thus I will(/might) get different
audio output. That's rather annoying behavior in my opinion :-/.
