Audio devices, headset
By default, the app uses the operating system settings to use the microphone and speaker as well as the acoustic signalling of incoming calls (ringing). In Windows, the available input and output devices can also be set differently from the operating system standard: Settings > Audio
*Details about the settings are in Audio
*Note: The Audio menu item is only available in Windows and macOS, not in Linux.
Instead of the stored default ringtone, your own audio file can also be used as the ringtone: Settings > Audio > Ringtone settings
