But this only works if DSOUND_Stop and DSOUND_Release are called
from different threads, right?

Isn't the real problem that when ALSA_DestroyRingMessage(*) is called from
IDsDriverBuffer_Release it doesn't check if there are still any "fast messages"
in the queue which wait for their message to be handled?
Just from a quick look it seems you could theoretically trigger the
same deadlock with the WODM_RESET & WODM_CLOSE messages when using
the waveout system.
(*) probably affects all other sound drivers as well which use this
(horrible complex) message ring buffer system.
