Does it mean you want to be able to queue buffers on e.g. OUTPUT queue, while
this queue is in STREAM OFF state ?

Or do you really want to be able to to queue/dequeue buffers on CAPTURE queue,
while the OUTPUT queue is in STREAM OFF state ?

This seems a bit asymmetric. Even if a driver sets 'buffered' on the capture
queue nothing really changes, right ?

Thanks,
