Subject: [SDL] Crashes when using aRts on Linux

We had a problem with my app using SDL. It always crashed after SDL_OpenAudio(),
if the artsd was running on a Linux machine with KDE. After some investigation
(and searching for differences in other apps using arts) we found out, that the
problem resulted from loading, calling arts_init(), calling arts_free() and
unloading the aRts-Library in .../src/audio/arts/SDL_artsaudio.c twice: first in
"static int Audio_Available()", the second time in "static SDL_AudioDevice
*Audio_CreateDevice(int devindex)".
