I am running a signed applet that needs to provide the ability for the user to select the input and output audio devices ( similar to what skype provides).

I borrowed the following code from other thread:

import javax.sound.sampled.*;
public class SoundAudit {
  public static void main(String[] args) { try {
    System.out.println("OS: "+System.getProperty("os.name")+" "+
      System.getProperty("os.version")+"/"+
      System.getProperty("os.arch")+"\nJava: "+
      System.getProperty("java.version")+" ("+
      System.getProperty("java.vendor")+")\n");
      for (Mixer.Info thisMixerInfo : AudioSystem.getMixerInfo()) {
        System.out.println("Mixer: "+thisMixerInfo.getDescription()+
          " ["+thisMixerInfo.getName()+"]");
        Mixer thisMixer = AudioSystem.getMixer(thisMixerInfo);
        for (Line.Info thisLineInfo:thisMixer.getSourceLineInfo()) {
            if (thisLineInfo.getLineClass().getName().equals(
              "javax.sound.sampled.Port")) {
              Line thisLine = thisMixer.getLine(thisLineInfo);
              thisLine.open();
              System.out.println("  Source Port: "
                +thisLineInfo.toString());
              for (Control thisControl : thisLine.getControls()) {
                System.out.println(AnalyzeControl(thisControl));}
              thisLine.close();}}
        for (Line.Info thisLineInfo:thisMixer.getTargetLineInfo()) {
          if (thisLineInfo.getLineClass().getName().equals(
            "javax.sound.sampled.Port")) {
            Line thisLine = thisMixer.getLine(thisLineInfo);
            thisLine.open();
            System.out.println("  Target Port: "
              +thisLineInfo.toString());
            for (Control thisControl : thisLine.getControls()) {
              System.out.println(AnalyzeControl(thisControl));}
            thisLine.close();}}}
  } catch (Exception e) {e.printStackTrace();}}
  public static String AnalyzeControl(Control thisControl) {
    String type = thisControl.getType().toString();
    if (thisControl instanceof BooleanControl) {
      return "    Control: "+type+" (boolean)"; }
    if (thisControl instanceof CompoundControl) {
      System.out.println("    Control: "+type+
        " (compound - values below)");
      String toReturn = "";
      for (Control children:
        ((CompoundControl)thisControl).getMemberControls()) {
        toReturn+="  "+AnalyzeControl(children)+"\n";}
      return toReturn.substring(0, toReturn.length()-1);}
    if (thisControl instanceof EnumControl) {
      return "    Control:"+type+" (enum: "+thisControl.toString()+")";}
    if (thisControl instanceof FloatControl) {
      return "    Control: "+type+" (float: from "+
        ((FloatControl) thisControl).getMinimum()+" to "+
        ((FloatControl) thisControl).getMaximum()+")";}
    return "    Control: unknown type";}
}

But what I get:

Mixer: Software mixer and synthesizer [Java Sound Audio Engine]
Mixer: No details available [Microphone (Pink Front)]

I was expecting the get the real list of my devices (My preferences panels shows 3 output devices and 1 Microphone). I am running on Mac OS X 10.6.7.

Is there other way to get that info from Java?
