Patch to kill stream after cinematic (313 bytes, patch)

Description Jay Weisskopf 2006-05-16 03:03:26 EDT 
This is with OpenAL being used:
The first time a cinematic is played (such as the id logo), the sound works fine. After that, it doesn't work unless a snd_restart is done. It looks like the stream wasn't being killed when a cinematic finished or got interrupted. I added a one-liner to StopAllSounds to kill the stream. It seems to have done the trick.

this problem does not exist on linux, but the proposed patch does not change the observable behaviour (i.e. sound using OpenAL continues to work)

Setting a QA contact on all ioquake3 bugs, even resolved ones. Sorry if you get a flood of email from this, it should only happen once. Apologies for the incovenience.
