Looks like you need to set one of the
D3DVIS_INSIDE_FRUSTUM/D3DVIS_INTERSECT_FRUSTUM/D3DVIS_OUTSIDE_FRUSTUM
flags, depending on which applies. The values of the flags also
suggest INSIDE/OUTSIDE applies to the sphere centers rather than the
sphere as a whole. Ie, you can have both D3DVIS_INSIDE_LEFT and
D3DVIS_INTERSECT_LEFT set. You would need to write tests for this, of
course.

Note that the planes you get from this aren't necessarily normalized.
