Let me know what you guys think of this one, I think it will be
somewhat controversial. There is a registry key to enable this
currently, but it should really occur by default and maybe be
unchangeable. If you have multiple cards, like a USB mic for capture,
scan_devices to 0, as would occur on many configurations currently, is
undesirable and most users won't be able to work around it.
I'm not sure why scan_devices would be 0, maybe to prevent bugs while
probing or something, but I don't see much reason to disable scanning
all reported audio devices. Thoughts? Please let me know if I'm
missing anything.
