An update: we have received a clarification from Microsoft. Both 
`DirectSoundEnumerate` and `DirectSoundCaptureEnumerate` require COM to be 
initialised. DirectSound APIs support both MTA and STA. So, we should 
initialise COM in MTA.

Initialising and uninitialising COM aren't heavy. As such, moving sound 
enumeration to a helper thread *would cost more*. So, we'll follow the current 
approach.
