Frogger sound issue - music plays fast #16

I love your work! 🙌🙌 I notice the frogger core has a sound issue where one of the songs is sped up. I notice when I get one or two frogs into the box, the next song plays super fast. Original hardware does not play fast like this. Thank you for the awesome cores! :))

I can specify the sound problem a bit further: what plays to fast is the "default tune" which is playing. The default tune is the music which is playing when no other music is playing. Example: after you start the game, the starting music is playing. After it is finished the default tune is starting with correct speed. When you place a frog in its house at the top, a special music is playing. If you are very fast and place the next frog before this music has finished the default music will not play. But if you take some time the default music will start to play again but now very fast and a bit out of tune. This will problem will stay (music for succesfull saving a frog is OK, default tune after that not) for the rest of the game till you are game over.

While playing, the second or third song plays fast. It sounds sped up. The sped up music can be found on this youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KT-EqaCZrw At the 0:44 second mark.

On original hardware, the song doesn't sound sped up like that. This video is older, but I am running the current version of the core, and still experiencing the sound issue.

THANKS!

Hope this music problem will be fixed in the near future. Frogger is one of the games we will never see an official emulation with the correct music anymore, because of licensing problems. I can't stand to play the Hamster Arcade Archives version because of the missing and changed music. Frogger is one of the big old arcade legends, please fix! Thank you very much.
