I've tested this on 2 different installs, one PC that had been used for years, upgraded from Win 8.1 and one cleanly installed. If by any chance you forget to do it after a reboot, shut down Stream Deck completely, restart it and do step 2, just like after a reboot. It looks like you really only have to do step 2 after each reboot. I regularly switch my default playback device between my desktop speakers and game channel of my headset and this does not interfere twith the work-around. Set the Output for Stream Deck to ' Voicemeeter Input' and play a sample again, checking if it still comes out the device you want. Go to ' App volume and device preferences' near the bottom.
SAMSON SOUND DECK NOT WORKING WINDOWS
Switch your default playback device back to what you want and Stream Deck is still working as intended. Go to the Windows Sound Settings (Right click the speaker near your clock and click ' Open Sound settings). After a cold boot or reboot, switch your default playback device to the Voicemeter Input and let Stream Deck play a sample. Now you can change back your default playback device and Stream Deck should still use the Voicemeeter output as expected. Set the Output for Stream Deck to " Voicemeeter Input" and play a sample again, checking if it still comes out the device you want. Go to the Windows Sound Settings(Right click the speaker near your clock and click " Open Sound settings).- Go to " App volume and device preferences" near the bottom. It should playback properly through the device you set up in the Voicemeeter app. Change your default playback device to the Voicemeeter Input and play a sample. Reboot your PC and do nothing with the Stream Deck yet. Just first set up Voicemeeter to your likings, I've set up my hardware out to play back through the voice channel of my headset and Windows to use the Voicemeeter Input as default comms device. You have to do the first step once, after that it's only a little procedure after every (re)boot. It looks as if it "binds' itself to the first sound device it plays its sample through. It is in fact a problem with the Stream Deck software.

I found a work-around that works pretty nice.
