Bugzilla Bug 214697

For libao to work properly the audio thread has to be created *after* the mutex
and condition is created otherwise the sound thread has a chance to deadlock
(as it was wont to do on my machine before I applied this patch :).

I can't take credit for this fix as it was posted on one of the zsnes dev
sites. As such, it's probably already upstream. But in lieu of an upstream
version bump any time soon, I think this patch should be rolled in here as -r2.

Patch below comes from
