Oops, this is a mistake. case SNDCTL_DSP_GETCAPS is broken. Now it
is still broken, but the compiler no longer warns about it.
The right fix is to kill 'info' and use 'val' all the way through
case SNDCTL_DSP_GETCAPS. (And if you leave 'val' uninitialized, then
the compiler will issue warnings for bugs.)
