[PD] What does this element do on the Pd-Window?

[Christof Ressi]

It switches to "Audio On" if DSP is ticked. Not particularly useful to 
be honest. There is also the "I/O Error" message that appears on some 
backends when dropouts occur. Is this message displayed on the same 
label? I'm too lazy to check...
