PATCH: Fixes some other problems with listing codecs

Certain applications will use acmStreamOpen in query mode to figure out 
what types of convertions an audio codec can do. Normally, in query mode 
the parameter phas should be NULL, but as it turns out some 
non-compliant applications will pass garbage causing acmStreamOpen to 
return an error. This prevents the application from using that codec. 
Instead, following a suggestion of Eric Pouech, we make sure the 
parameter phas is correct by setting it equal to NULL in query mode.

Enjoy,
Waldeck

PS: Eric, the credit for this patch should be all yours. Have another 
beer for me! :-)
