Solved How to set the order of audio output devices?

I have headphones plugged into the audio jack in the front of my box. When I unplug them, the system used to automatically select my external speakers, which are plugged into the audio jack in back of my box. That was great. But now, Windows selects the built-in speakers of my monitor, and those speakers are terrible. Can I set the order of my audio output devices, so the external speakers will be automatically selected when I unplug my headphones?

If you haven't check Settings --> System --> Sound

Over there, I can set the default output device. But I am looking to set the secondary output device.

Set your preferred speakers as the default device, the secondary device will be elected when you plug something else in.

While on the same topic, can one set Bluetooth headphones as the primary device so the actual speakers on the computer are muted and when the bluetooth headphones are off, then the actual speakers would be used instead similar to how wired headphones when plugged in are muting the speakers.

Disable the devices you don't want to use...

Experience with Bluetooth speakers says if you set the external speakers default, the Bluetooth speaker is not automatically activated when you switch on the speaker. If you set the Bluetooth speaker default, it is automatically activated when switched on. If you switch it off the external speakers are default. So I would set the desired speakers default with the headphones disconnected. I would then connect the headphones and set them default. Hopefully this will automatically output sound from the headphones when present and from the external speaker when the headphones are disconnected. Exactly what you want.
