Unfortunately I don’t know the answer to your question. What I do know is that Microsoft has declared DirectPlay to be deprecated technology and strongly recommends AGAINST using it. This is due to discovered security holes, as well as the fact that the more robust Winsock 2 API now allows you to do everything you would want to do for networking.

Unfortunately, Winsock 2 doesn’t have a high-level implementation of voice sessions, but there are several 3rd party developers which are using the Winsock 2 API, in conjunction with OpenAL, and various forms of compression to create an alternative to DirectPlay voice. A quick search on google brings up:
