Looking over the documentation that Thomas Jongepier sent along to me,
he in fact had to upgrade some of his test machines to directX7 to get
things to work -- I'll add this to the changelog documentation.

I'll send this along to Thomas also (not sure if he's on the mailing list),
however from experiences John Wawrzynek had over the summer with DirectSound,
some key parts of the API are actually emulated under Windows2000, which
could be the root cause of this problem ...
