Description

as per conversation on slack docs_ofbook with @arturoc
currently just this:

    ofSoundStreamSettings s;
    s.numOutputChannels = 2;
    ofSoundStreamSetup(s);

doesn't generate any sound. I had to call:

    ofSoundStreamSettings s;
    s.setOutListener(this);
    s.numOutputChannels = 2;
    ofSoundStreamSetup(s);

Without calling setOutListener, it should auto add the current app

(I'm having this issue with master on OS X 10.11.3)

Research direction

Start at the ofSoundStreamSetup entry point and compare the two ofSoundStreamSettings snippets, focusing on how the output listener is selected. Done means configuring output channels without an explicit setOutListener(this) call produces sound through the current app, with behavior checked on the affected platform.
