stalled start.

This fixes a "no sound" problem with Wolfenstein Enemy Territory and
(apparently) other games using the Quake3 engine.  It probably affects
some other OSS applications as well.

This recreates some code that had been removed from the i810_audio
driver around 5/2004.  (This is the 2.6-based version of this patch.)
