mmdevapi: More accurately track device position

Hi folks,

I have a significant patch to the ALSA driver which I hope will improve
audio playback for PulseAudio users, especially users with audio that
stops playing or is choppy. Before I push this for inclusion in Wine, I
was hoping to get some feedback from users still having issues using
Wine with PulseAudio.

The patch is attached to this comment. It will apply to wine-git
(d6a59f755eff), it will not apply to Wine 1.7.19. Please build
unmodified Wine with this patch and let me know if this results in any
changes to your audio situation. Please confirm in winecfg that you are
using the winealsa driver before testing.

Specifically I'm interested to know:

What problems did you have before when using the ALSA driver? Are there
any noticeable changes as a result of applying this patch? Do any
problems remain?

What type of audio hardware do you have (e.g. a USB headset, built-in
audio)? If possible, what make/model is it? "aplay -L" may give you a
hint.

Please post your test results here, or email me directly if you prefer.

Title:
  Occasional sound drops in Wine via PulseAudio

Status in Wine:
  Confirmed
Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “wine” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: wine

  I'm running the Spotify Windows application on two laptops under Wine
  with both internal and external USB sound card. With both cards you
  get the occasional pop and click in the sound suggesting some data
  loss somewhere.

  I've selected the alsa drivers in winecfg and the whole thing is
  running via the alsa compatibility layer in pulseaudio.

  Jaunty 9.04 UNR and standard Ubuntu desktop.
