The first step in implementing DirectSound in an application is to create a DirectSound object, which represents a sound device and gives access to the IDirectSoundinterface.

This section describes how your application can enumerate available sound devices, create the DirectSound object for a device, and use the methods of the object to set the cooperative level, retrieve the capabilities of the device, create sound buffers, set the configuration of the system's speakers, and compact hardware memory.
