Does anyone know how to create a "change playback device" macro or shortcut?

I'm trying to make a hotkey for switching between my headphones and speakers. I know the manual way of clicking on the sound toolbar on Windows, but I want a shortcut instead. Maybe using QMK/VIP/Keycodes?

But if you want a physical device specifically for your custom macros /audio devices and whatever functions you want it to do this is a good one to use that I linked above. Used to be $50 on Amazon for the wooden case version, but this is the latest updated model with USB -C in the back and 4 separate knobs where you can bind each knob to anything (or any key combination aw you want) as well as each "volume knob" can be pressed in as a button so that can also be used as a separate "macro" or can be bound to do anything you specify, or a series of key combinations you specify. I personally have my first rotary knob as mute all audio output devices when pressed in, then master volume for the whole PC and all audio sources is bound to the same knob for when you turn it left/right. Next knob I use for my DAC/AMP/Headset, and then have the rest for super specific things for my worK.
