Multiple OpenAL devices

Hi all, I have just started to test this great game. As far as I can tell, Path of Exile uses OpenAL for audio. I would like to know what happens if we have several OpenAL audio devices installed. Is there any way to choose our preferred OpenAL device?

For example, I have both the X-Fi MB2 software and a program called Rapture3D (a great software based OpenAL driver). Both identify themselves as OpenAL hardware devices, but I would like to use Rapture3D in this game. In most Unreal Engine games, you can change the OpenAL device editing the INI file, there are other games like Lord of the Rings Online that allows you to choose the OpenAL device you want for sound via game options. Something similar for Path of Exile would be great.
Bump, easy to implement.
Up!

Please, add the choice of the device!

Other soundcard vendors OpenAL

This is on our lead programmers to do list, though probably lowish priority

Thanks!

I know it's not so important, but it can show the care of devs about the audio aspect!

Only few games let the player choose the exact OpenAL device from the menu (STALKER games, LOTRO).
