That is a policy implemented within the Windows audio system.

Hardware-Offloaded Audio Processing

So how to discover offloaded formats?
There are some fascinating things on that page. This paragraph near the bottom
stands out:
The functionality described for this new type of audio adapter and its
associated driver, can be used by Windows Store apps via WASAPI, Media
Foundation, Media Engine, or the HTML 5 <audio> tags. Note that Wave and DSound
cannot be used, as they are not available to Windows Store apps. Also note that
Classic Win32 applications cannot use adapters that are capable of processing
hardware-offloaded audio.
How can there possibly be a feature set that is available to Windows Store
applications, but NOT to Win32 applications? Win32 applications can access
WASAPI and Media Foundation just fine.
