System32 folder does not give proper reading access for user-level
applications. I'm using Windows folder for my own icons and it works properly.
Changing icon file security settings doesn't matter, it's about the folders the
icons are stored. Try putting the icons to either Windows folder or another
user-accessible folder. Another option would probably be to run AudioSwitch as
administrator, but it's inconvenient and otherwise unnecessary.

AudioSwitch looks like it hard codes the path it is trying to get the icon
from. Is there a way to have it look at the current path that AudioSwitch.exe
is in.
Basically all I did was to copy the nbspkrs.ico file to the folder, but
AudioSwitch doesn't check there first.
Running AudioSwitch as an administrator didn't fix it. I had tried this before
submitting the issue.

it doesn't work this way - you have to change the actual device icon,
AudioSwitch just uses the one that the interface gives. To set the device's
icon: right-click the volume icon -> choose playback devices or recording
devices -> double-click the device you want to change the icon -> click the
button "Change Icon" -> browse for the icon. Now Windows considers this icon as
the device's and AudioSwitch uses it as well.

Ah ok. It was HP's fault for putting a specific icon in there. I changed it to
use the default speaker from whatever the dll was called.
