Hmm... alsa APi define input/output as:
	enum {
	        SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK = 0,
	        SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE,
	        SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_LAST = SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE,
	};


I would use a namespace as close as possible to the
ALSA API. Also, we're not talking about V4L2, but, instead
audio. so, not sure if I like the prefix to start with
V4L2_. Maybe ALSA_?

So, a better namespace would be:

	${prefix}_BUF_TYPE_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK
and
	${prefix}_BUF_TYPE_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE

pixelformat doesn't make any sense for audio: there are no pixels on a
PCM stream. Please use call it, instead: `snd_pcm_format`, making it match
the values for snd_pcm_format_t.

Yet, I would keep defining it as u32 (or u64?) instead of using a
typedef int field there (snd_pcm_format_t), as the size of integer
is different on 32 and 64 bit kernels.

Why not start on zero?
