Hi folks,
 I have a situation where my app doesn't work on a PC with no sound
card installed, because I depend on onSoundComplete for a couple of
synchronised triggers and (guess what) onSoundComplete is never called
if the machine doesn't have a sound card. Not unexpected, I guess.

 However, unfortunately System.capabilities.hasAudio doesn't report
false. I assume it only returns false for builds of a player that
doesn't have audio (for example, handhelds and so forth).

 I could really do with finding a way to detect the presence/absence
of a sound card. Any ideas? The one that occurs is to, in app startup,
fire off a short sound (say 500ms duration) and check whether the
onSoundComplete has been called 1s later - if not, no soundcard - but
obviously this slows down app startup and is a bit of a pain. I was
wondering if there was anything simpler around..?

TIA,
 Ian
