There is not. Text is always the default.

There is no way to set a default channel type. You can force a channel to be a certain type with permissions, but as currently implemented, this is of limited value.

Commenting and voting there with your use cases would help me push for change. I can't guarantee it will happen but I can push for it.Translations provided by Google.

I was able to find an easy workaround for this right now, but it involves a small template edit. I'm sure that's not recommended...

I was able to do this by editing single template: Module Templates > widget_newcontent
and adding (replace EventForumChannelD with the channel [Node ID] of your event forum channel):
HTML Code:<vb:if condition="$channelInfo['nodeid'] == 'EventForumChannelD"> {vb:set MyContentType, 'Event'} <vb:else /> {vb:set MyContentType, 'Text'} </vb:if>
HTML Code:defaultContentType=Text,
HTML Code:defaultContentType={vb:raw MyContentType},
