This seems like a reasonable compromise.


While multiple output modules can help solve the "gotcha" problem, I
inevitably lose my output modules during beta cycles. The fewer presets
I have to remake the better, and simpler behavior is better for new
users too.

So, if AE treated an output module with the audio checkbox ON as meaning
=E2=80=9Coutput audio if the comp has audio=E2=80=9D instead of the current=
 =E2=80=9Coutput
audio even if the comp doesn=E2=80=99t have audio=E2=80=9D, would that caus=
e trouble for
anyone? Presumably that change would fix the above problems, if we also
defaulted the audio checkbox ON in the shipping presets.
