      Hi,

      I've just set up RetroPie 4.3 on my rpi3 from scratch. Everything is working fine, apart from Cannonball has no sound at all.

      Everything else has sound as expected, I am using a USB sound card rather than the 3.5mm audio jack as the sound quality is a lot better.

      If I plug some speakers into my audio jack and configure RetroPie Audio (in the serttings) to use the headphone jack, then Cannonball has it's sound back! However I don't really want to have to change the way my speakers are connected and change settings just to play one game.

      I couldn't see any obvious way to change the sound device in Cannonball's menus - is there something in the config files which I could change to force it to use the correct audio output device - my usb sound card?

      Thanks!
