Call this method only if output sound device was removed, suspended or changed.<br>This method will reload all audio data stored in <mark style="color:red;">AudioManager</mark>.  So if you scene has to much non-streaming audio clips it can take some time.<br><br>This method called automatically by <strong>Force</strong> when user change system audio device, but in some situations event that comes from <strong>OS</strong> can be ignored by <strong>Force</strong>, and it that case you can call it manually.</p> |

### Examples

Using **AudioEngine** to print the user audio device speaker name.

```csharp

using Force;

public class ExampleAudioEngine : MonoScript {

	// Runs when scene starts to play.
	public void OnStart() {
		Debug.Log(AudioEngine.GetAudioDeviceName());
	}

	// Runs every game cycle.
	public void OnUpdate(float delta) {
	}
}
```
