If the problem is sound related there are usually some known words in the summary line describing the problem, why not search for them? Why do you think inventing a new keyword and adding it to the buch of bugs is easier that correctly formulate the problem using right words in the summary?
Well, at least searching is easier for a well defined keyword than for a free form summary line. With a keyword you wouldn't have to take into account differences in formulation like e.g. "audio" vs. "sound".
That aside, it does seem to me that there's some overlap in functionality between keywords and components. I'm not quite sure how other people use the component field, but maybe we don't need both. Somewhat related, is it really useful to make the distinction between mmdevapi, winmm, dsound, etc. if it's mostly the same people working on those, and you practically need to debug a bug first before you can make that distinction anyway?
