When compiling the AkSink project for Profile Win64 (opened via AllWindowsSoundEngine_vc170.sln), we get these compile errors:

AkSinkXAudio.cpp(318,3): error C2065: 'XAUDIO2_DEVICE_DETAILS': undeclared identifier
AkSinkXAudio.cpp(319,8): error C2039: 'GetDeviceDetails': is not a member of 'IXAudio2'

and a few other errors near those lines.

We can address this if we install the Direct X SDK from June 2010. It seems odd that we would need that older SDK, and we would prefer not to install it on our workstations and build machines if we can avoid it. 

Does anyone know how we can build this correctly without installing the June 2010 DirectX SDK?
