See Question&Answers more detail:osSystem Tray Audio Device Switcher uses "SoftwareMicrosoftMultimediaSound Mapper", "Playback"
to set the index of the sound device which was obtained by enumeration the devices.
mciSendCommand from "winmm.dll" is also used
In this source code you will find the registry keys used to achieve that.
If this doesn't work you could give Process Monitor a try and monitor all registry activities of windows when you change the default device. On my Vista installation the control panel twiddles with "HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionMMDevicesAudioRender"
