The sound effects in Pikachu Volleyball stop playing after a short while,
though the background music continues (it's MIDI). Sometimes distorted noises
can be heard before the sound effects stop entirely. Regression testing
indicated:

Reverting the patch fixed the problem. I use ALSA (no Pulseaudio).

I first found (seemingly) the same problem in a game called Alonix, but it's
easier to reproduce in this one:

1. Start a single player game (top option in main menu)
2. Do nothing

Sound effects are played on the first turn, but not on any subsequent turn. (I
haven't heard any distortion this way.)
