    dsound: Handle failing of IDsDriver_CreateSoundBuffer better.
prior to wine-0.9.44 causes Ankh's voice output to stop way before the end of
each sentence. Although it's a very old commit and the (structure of the) code
in dsound looks different now, behaviour has never changed since. The bug is
audible right from the intro movie.

Simultaneously, it causes the movie to stop intermittently (for ~1/2s, varying)
at the start of each audio sentence. Before that commit, movement was quite
fluid.
Perhaps the 1/2 second (sometimes more, sometimes randomly less) that is cut
from the end of the audio output corresponds with the motion break that occurs
before audio is started, as if audio output was hold back for a small and
random amount of time, then chopped?

Winecfg setting OSS HW, 22050Hz at 8bit; using Ubuntu Intrepid.
HW or emulation makes no difference. Same results with ALSA (in versions of
Wine newer than 0.9.44 where ALSA does not seem to initialize with Intrepid).
No PulseAudio.
