I'm no more opposed to adding a pseudo-component. I simply suggest naming it unknown-audio or unknown-sound instead of "sound" such that people will hopefully still use the existing quartz, mmdevapi, winealsa, winmm&mci, direct-dmusic and direct-dsound.
How is that better than simple 'unknown'?
Because then I can search for audio-related bugs where the component is not yet known.
If the component is unknown probably there is no need to speculate about the reasons and the source of the bug and investigate the problem instead?
I can't investigate the problem if I don't know about it ;)
If a bug is audio related, I want to know about it. I've been asking people to CC me on audio bugs, but that gets missed on a lot of them. Adding a Sound keyword would make searching for audio bugs trivial, so I can add myself to the CC list.
