Metroid: Zero Mission - Audio sometimes sounds off via specific conditions. #67

(Edit: After testing many builds, I found where this issue first started. It was the test build named GBA_new_sounddma.rbf and this issue continued through to official releases after.)

I noticed that sometimes Zero Mission's audio can sound off, almost hollow sounding depending on when you load it. Its not a guarantee, but usually if you start a game like Zelda Minish Cap and then load Zero Mission you get bad audio, but if you start core fresh and load Zero Mission first it sounds fine. Here are audio comparisons I recorded.

The recent "fix soundfifo reset" commit fixed this issue, thanks.
