Hi Andrew,
While discussing the translation of 'Voice output device' and 'Voice input device' in winecfg, Jactry and I have no idea what does 'voice' mean here. Voice could be translated to both '声音‘ and '语音' in Chinese, the former means all kinds of sound, the latter means human voice only, which one is more accurate?
I know you've subscribed wine-devel, I CC'ed you because you are the original contributor to the 'voice input device' related code. Thanks a lot!

Please ignore the first patch, I modify some in this one. Thanks advice from Qian Hong.
It comes basically from the ERole enumeration in MMDevAPI: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd370842%28v=vs.85%2...
The "Input device" maps to eConsole (and eMultimedia, which is identical to eConsole in modern Windows). The "Voice input device" maps to eCommunications.
So, "human voice" is the intended meaning.
Hope this clears it up!
Andrew

Thanks Andrew. I will add the new translation next time I sent a new patch.
