If you're switching the output device, with which Windows will bring out every sound, while Terraria is running, the game won't react to that and still uses the same device that was used before until you restart the game. For example when you're switching from external speakers to a headset.
This issue was in the game before 1.4 but is still around.
 
I believe this is simply how Terraria handles sound devices. You have to restart the game to use a new sound device, a number of games have this limitation.
