This seems closely related to various proposals (and implementations) for "audio output channels". See the thread starting at http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-whatwg-archive/2013Mar/0174.html. Basically, those proposals approach the problem by defining a standard set of logical audio output channels (which we could think of as logical output devices) and leaving the mapping from those channels to actual output devices to the UA.
