The "channel mask" section of a WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE is a 32-bit number.
Perhaps you're tripping some wave format validation that assumes a valid
WAVEFORMATEX only ever has fewer than 32 channels. (This sounds like a bug to
me, since a channel mask of zero is always valid.)

Subject: [wdmaudiodev] USB Audio/WASAPI channel limits?
Greetings.
I'm developing a USB2 input only audio device that exposes a large (N >= 24)
number of channels.
The device is recognized and streams correctly on W7x64 at up to 32 channels,
48K sample rate and both 16 and 24 bit sample sizes. Data is recorded
accurately using various commercial WASAPI hosts (Sonar/Tracktion)
Windows, however, appears to baulk at any larger channel count. The various USB
tracers (both stack and wire) show Windows sending a QUERY_CAPABILITIES every
second or so when device is configured with 32 channels. Anything above that
and zero action.
Is there some hard limit or have I missed something?
Cheers.
Jerry
