alsa driver patch

While figurinig out the kinks to get Love working, I had to patch the Alsa
driver to make it behave like the esound one.

The thread about that process is available here:

AppDB entry for the game:

To summarize, my understanding is that love.exe tries to open the sound device
twice. It works if you use the esound backend, and after a bit of investigation
we found that applying the attached patch would make things work with the Alsa
backend as well (e.g. change the return code from MMSYSERR_ALLOCATED to
MMSYSERR_NOERROR).

(thanks to Kevlarman for initially coming up with this fix)
