Getting audio devices (through DirectX)

I hope I've come to the right place..;^)

For an app I am writing I need to create a list of available audio devices
and display them in a combobox.. Displaying them is no problem, but I
cannot find anything useful on how to get the names of the available
devices through VB.NET..

As an example, my Audigy gives me 5 (virtual?) devices in soundmapper using
the kXproject drivers:

'kX Wave SB0240 10k2 [ff40] 0/1' (for summed out on out1)
'kX Wave SB0240 10k2 [ff40] 4/5' (for out1)
'kX Wave SB0240 10k2 [ff40] 6/7' (for out2)
'kX Wave SB0240 10k2 [ff40] 8/9' (for out3)
'kX Wave SB0240 10k2 [ff40] HQ' (for HQ summed out on out1)

What I want to do is find these names and put them in a combobox so the
user can select which device to use. If the user selects his choice of
device I need to find the appropriate device parameters to set my audio
engine (BASS)..
