You can use freeALUT or the sample code for loading WAV files -- your
choice. As can be expected, Creative emphasizes device enumeration in
the SDK, which tends to push us towards a "do it yourself" attitude when
it comes to the sample code. Initialization with device enumeration as
well as file loading can be accomplished in the current freeALUT library
as well.
