Automator and sound preferences

Question

Imac Mac OS X (10.4.9)
Is there any way set up an automator script (or Apple script) to change sound preferences. Example, change from Imic output to headphone output, turn off and on Isub. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Furthermore, I came across this applescript in forums which appears to do switching, it opens the preference panel and selects sound but then stops with the fault.
System Events got an error: NSReceiverEvaluationScriptError: 4
I don't understand the script language yet as I am new to automator and apple script.
i need to switch between imic output(with sub off) and headphone output (with sub on)
Also whats the best place to learn apple script language?
tell application "System Preferences"
activate
set current pane to pane "com.apple.preference.sound"
end tell
tell application "System Events"
tell process "System Preferences"
click radio button "Output" of tab group 1 of window "Sound"
repeat until (value of radio button "Output" of tab group 1 of window "Sound") is 1
end repeat
if (selected of row 1 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 1 of window "Sound") is true then
select row 2 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 1 of window "Sound"
repeat until (selected of row 2 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 1 of window "Sound") is true
end repeat
else
select row 1 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 1 of window "Sound"
repeat until (selected of row 1 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 1 of window "Sound") is true
end repeat
end if
end tell
quit
