Allow sound device selection for Voice Chat on Android

So, I was playing around a bit with VO on my phone, and I noticed that, even though it's got Voice Chat, the sound device selection boxes are all greyed out. I've got a Bluetooth headset which would work great for this, but there seems to be no way for Android VO to use it.

Gonna ressurect this one since it still seems silly.

I got a new bluetooth headset that supports A2DP, and game audio plays on it just fine, but no matter what, VO still uses the phone's built in microphone for voice chat. That sucks for people trying to play the game on devices that do not have a built in microphone, but have a bluetooth radio. (OUYA, some tablets)

Please implement sound device selection for VC on Android like it has for other platforms...

+1 I use an android tablet exclusively. While my tablet can use a Bluetooth earpiece or even the hardwired ear and mic VO will not recognize either one on my Acer Iconia. Please fix this.

So.. we can look into this, but I can't promise anything. Unlike the rest of the game, the voice chat system is TeamSpeak, and I am not sure their Android library implementation supports selection of different sound devices. But, we can investigate that.
