I've been using Airfoil to do this for years. Only one Mac needs to have the music: it is streamed across the network to the other. You need a reasonably well performing network for this to work well: sometimes my WiFi plays up and the audio can get a little out of sync as a result. For me, it works best when using their software on both Macs (Airfoil on ...

You can combine AirPlay in iTunes 11 and up with something like AirSever to accomplish this with good results and very little effort. (Note: For more options on how to turn your Mac in to an AirPlay receiver please see: Can I use a Mac Mini as an Airplay audio receiver?)
Install the AirPlay receiver software of your choice on the machine you want to stream ...

I found this question while searching Google for finding apps playing sound osx - I had the same sounds playing. I found out that when logged into Messages if a someone logs in or out it plays a couple of different but similar swooshing sounds.
I found it in Messages, Preferences, Alerts and the two alerts are called Buddy Becomes Available and Buddy ...

(This is answering an old question, but since I was researching the topic...)
It's to do with keeping different hardware devices in sync.
When you create an aggregate device, more than one piece of sound generation hardware may be required to operate concurrently. Even if these devices are running at the same sample rate, they're probably all using ...

Actually it is possible to use external microphone on MacBook pro and Air 2012 Models.
It looks like Apple has redesigned it to be a multifunction plug, without telling us in plain English. What they o say is you can use the Apple iPhone headset with microphone!
Since there are multiple options to connect a microphone lets take a look.
1 - For stand ...

The audio-in port on Mac Minis is a line-level port, meaning that a standard PC microphone may not be audible without some sort of amplifier.
On any Mini from 2010 and later, you can use the Apple headset (the kind that comes with the iPhone), but you have to plug it into the headphone port, not the audio-in port. There are also adapters available that ...

Yes, it seems the option is missing from your settings: this is what that preference panel looks like on my machine (13-inch, Mid 2009) (with nothing plugged into the audio port):
Unfortunately it looks like audio input isn't implemented on your model :(
The tech specs for MacBook Pro (13-inch and 15-inch, Mid 2012) have the following for the 13-inch:

I've had this problem on multiple MacBooks (from my old Powerbook 15 from 2003 to prior to finding this question on my late 2011 MBP 13").
Apple has acknowledged it as a bug when pressing the volume buttons during heavy CPU usage way back in OS 10.2! The solution was to go back to preferences and set it back where you wanted.

The thing is, The higher impedance headphones will be much lower quality on a low impedance output such as the macbook. Coming from an audiophile, If you only have a macbook and you dont have the dough to buy a $500 headphone amp, its not worth it! a $150 set of headphones would be better quality than an $800 dollar set without an amp.

You can pair your headset with Os X and just use the microphone. Tested it with my Sennheiser MM400 - though I am not sure if the mic keeps the connection with the mac. When I switched from the input to the output preference pane the mic was „deactivated“. The headset stays paired but it will not send any data. But maybe your application will hold up the ...

No you can't.
And as far as I can tell (searching the App Store) there are no apps that can help you. Even if there was one you wouldn't be able to open the audio file in Mail without using QuickTime, and that will always lead to the audio file playing through speaker.
Best you can do is have a pair of headphones with you and hope something changes in ...
