Hi,

It could be interesting to add a quick way to change input and output sound devices in the volume menu. That's quite handy when you want to switch from USB headset to main speakers.

These options could maybe only be shown if the alt key is pressed.

Maybe something a la: http://littlebigdetails.com/post/5730482828/mac-os-x-pressing-alt-and-clicking-the-volume

See bug 653089 for another suggested use of the alt key in the volume menu.
