Sadly discontinued but you can still find Managed DirectX which includes ...

using Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound;

// List all Audio Cards
DevicesCollection devList = new DevicesCollection();

foreach (DeviceInformation dev in devList)
{
   this.AddToLog("Found {0}, {1}, {2}", dev.Description, dev.DriverGuid, dev.ModuleName);
}
