It sounds like you need to get rid of all the endpoint settings so you can
simulate a first install.
1) delete the contents of
HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\mmdevices\audio\render
2) net stop audioendpointbuilder
3) net start audiosrv
For step 1 you will have to change the owner of the key to
"administrators" first.

installation?
Hi Mitchell,
I've tried
1) Reorder the bridge pins so that the speaker bridge pin is the last pin
2) Remove SetupPreferredAudioDevices from the inf
3) Both 1) and 2)
Nothing seems to have changed. I'm using a usb audio device that exposes
only speaker and SPDIF render endpoint, and the SPDIF endpoint is always
chosen as the default endpoint after installation on all 3 occassions. Using
the MS default usbaudio.sys driver gives the same result. Is there
anything else that I can try? Thanks.

Frank is correct that the speaker is chosen over headphones and SPDIF as
the default if no other endpoint has been explicitly set to be the default
(either by inf or the cpl). However, if your inf has a
SetupPreferredAudioDevices entry for these endpoints, then each will be set
in turn to be the preferred device and when installation is complete the
default device will be the last one processed. The processing order follows
the ids of the bridge pins. In other words if the SPDIF, speaker and
headphone bridge pins are 1, 2, 5, respectively, then the headphone will end
up being the default.
The solution is to remove SetupPreferredAudioDevices from the inf, or
reorder the pins.

The Vista heuristics should pick the speaker automatically. There may be
some problem in how your device is describing itself. For starters, you
should confirm that the form factor property (
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679150.aspx) in the endpoint's
property store is Speakers.

Subject: [wdmaudiodev] How to set Default endpoint for Vista installation?
Hi,
I have an audio device which exposes a SPDIF, speaker and headphone
endpoints as rendering endpoints. Currently, after a fresh installation, the
headphone endpoint is always set as the default endpoint by the OS. Is there
any way in which I can specify for the speaker endpoint to be selected as
the default endpoint instead?
Thanks
KS
