PowerShell cmdlet to manage audio devices

Hi,

I would love to see even more PowerShell cmdlets that let you manage the native settings in Windows 10.

I have two topics I would appreciate if someone from Microsoft could shed some light on

• Is there a long term goal to release PowerShell cmdlets for all settings you can configure in the Windows 10 GUI/Control panel?
  
• It would be great to get native PowerShell cmdlet to managing audio/recording devices. To be able to select/change the default playback and recording devices could be of big help in an enterprise environment. One example could be to make sure the correct
  speaker and mic are selected when running a video conference system based on Windows 10.

Are the above topics something that are planned for future Windows 10 releases?

PowerShell SqlServer module only imports functions and aliases, but no cmdlets

I am trying to use the SqlServer PowerShell module, available on the PowerShell Gallery.

After installing, either to -Scope CurrentUser or in an admin session, doing Import-Module SqlServer only results in three commands being imported into the session:

This is in spite of the fact that doing (Get-Module -Name SqlServer -ListAvailable)[0].ExportedCommands.Values lists out all of the commands that are supposed to be included:

I tried installing an older version of the SqlServer module, as well as tried a different user account on my machine. Lots of reboots, new PS sessions, etc. Running Import-Module in verbose/debug mode doesn't throw any errors, it just imports only the function and aliases; none of the Cmdlets. The problem factor seems to be this particular Windows system, which is Windows 10 Pro 1803.

It is also worth noting that I'm only trying to use this module because the sqlps module that comes installed with SQL Server Management Studio stopped working on this machine. I don't know why that was the case; my guess was relating to a Windows or SSMS update, but in order to get to the point here where at least the SqlServer module installs without errors and warnings about clobbering, I removed that module from my $PSModulePath. Something else that broke seemingly at the same time was that my WSMan TrustedHosts list was reset (to blank), causing issues with PowerShell remoting that I had solved previously (this machine is not domain-joined).

How in the heck do I troubleshoot this?
