OpenAL upstream has released a new minor version that should be fully
backwards compatible: http://kcat.strangesoft.net/openal.html
* Fixed playback when the PulseAudio buffer is calculated to be more than
64KB.
* Restored compatibility with some older PulseAudio libs.
* Alternative buffer sizing for PulseAudio, specified using a new config
option.
* Improved buffer size calculations, to prevent drastic latency changes
when certain properties (such as ALC_FREQUENCY) are modified.
* Added capture support for the PortAudio backend.
* Support for PortAudio under Windows.
* Added support for the format extensions AL_EXT_MULAW,
AL_EXT_MULAW_MCFORMATS, and AL_EXT_DOUBLE.
* Support for the new ALC_EXT_thread_local_context extension.
* Improved library load time by delaying backend device probing until
needed.
* Updated alext.h to provide EFX tokens and function types.
* Unsupported effects and filters are no longer returned by alGetEnumValue.
* The Wave File Writer device now creates WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE files, to
better handle multi-channel and float output.
According to the author, it will be needed for upcoming Wine beta
releases. libopenal1 has a handful of rdepends, and I've tested them
using a package for the new release (using a simple uupdate) that works
perfectly. The rdepends do not need a rebuild.
