That's just not up to you. When the audio system was totally redesigned
in Vista, they changed the philosophy. The audio ecosystem prior to
that had become the Wild Wild West, with clever vendor after clever
vendor inserting "helpful" filters and customizations into the audio
stack. The result was that the high-end professional audio application
companies started to complain that they couldn't achieve reproducible
results from system to system.
So, in the redesign, the application and the user are in charge. The
driver and any APOs are merely slaves. You don't get to make policy
decisions.
