I'm no AudioHardwareGetProperty expert, but this sounds like GetResource,
which as you'll remember causes all good non-trivial applications to contain
at least one instance of a code sequence like this one:

Handle h = GetResource (type,id);

if (h == NULL)
{
err = ResError ( );
if (!err) err = resNotFound;
}

Whatever the resolution of this issue, I hope it will be prominently
documented. GetResource has confused developers for close to two decades
now.
