Structures Used:
VB.NET 2005 - Use the following structure: WAVEOUTCAPS

Public Structure WAVEOUTCAPS
Public wMid As Short
Public wPid As Short
Public vDriverVersion As Integer

Public szPname As String
Public dwFormats As Integer
Public wChannels As Short
Public wReserved As Short
Public dwSupport As Integer
End Structure
C# 2005 version of structure
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.StructLayout(Runtime.InteropServices.LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = System.Runtime.InteropServices.CharSet.Auto)]

Do you know one? Please contribute it!
Notes:
Remember to have the strings marshaled as ByValTStr with size of 32.
Use "Auto" in the Declare statement to have the correct character set selected automatically.

Please add some!
Sample Code:
Sub ShowDeviceCaps()
Dim i As Integer
Dim wc As New WAVEOUTCAPS
MsgBox("Number of Wave Devices: " & waveOutGetNumDevs(), , "WAVE DEVICES")
For i = 0 To waveOutGetNumDevs() - 1
' waveOutGetDevCaps(i, wc, Len(wc))
waveOutGetDevCaps(i, wc, System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.SizeOf(wc))
MsgBox("MID = " & wc.wMid & Chr(13) & "PID = " & wc.wPid & Chr(13) & "Version = " & _
wc.vDriverVersion & Chr(13) & "Name = " & wc.szPname & Chr(13) & "Formats = " & wc.dwFormats & _
