When set to, ScummVM will automatically choose the most appropriate option for the played game. This device can be an emulated sound device or a software synthesizer, or an actual hardware device such as a soundcard or a hardware MIDI synthesizer.
The Preferred device in the global settings Audio tab, or the Music device in the game-specific settings Audio tab, specifies the device that ScummVM uses to output audio. How do the audio settings work together? ¶
