alcSetThreadContext isn't part of the ALC_SOFT_loopback extension, you 
should check for ALC_EXT_thread_local_context instead.

Since you're relying on ALC_EXT_thread_local_context anyway, it would 
probably be better to use alcSetThreadContext in context_lock, which 
would allow you to get rid of the global lock for normal calls (another 
thread can't change the current thread context on you, and unlike 
OpenGL, the same context can be current on multiple threads at the same 
time).
