Just implementing those IFACE_PCM control for the driver is not enough for
any practical use

Will need an API which allow the application to change the hardware per
stream volume in optimized way by calling one api ? ( e.g. those API is need
for if wine want to implement the real hardware acclerated dsound for those
hardware mixing sound cards which support at least 16 voices )
