Does ofSoundStream::getDeviceList() always have a default output?

I’m trying to create an app that automatically detects the operating system’s default sound device so I can setup with the default device’s input & output.

I wonder if there can be a case that ofSoundStream::getDeviceList() doesn’t contain any default output on specific operating systems.

I mean there should be at least one default audio output unless the computer doesn’t have a sound device at all. am I correct?

it can be detected like this. please take a look at the code and my comment below.

  int outputDeviceID = -1;

  for (int i=0; i<soundStream.getDeviceList().size(); ++i) {

          if (soundStream.getDeviceList()[i].isDefaultOutput) {
                outputDeviceID = i;
                break;
          }
   }

   if (outputDeviceID < 0) {

       cout << "Your computer doesn't have a sound device" << endl; // <-- is this always correct?
   }
