	 * and additional buffers must come after it.
	 * The behavior is inconsistent, but one of several things
	 * usually happens:
	 *   Playback is normal
	 *   Playback immediately stops after the non-pow2 buffer
	 *   Playback gets distorted on the non-pow2 buffer
	 *   The entire program segfaults.
	 * The workaround is to always specify a power of two buffer size
	 * and hope that SDL_sound always fill it. (By lucky coincidence,
	 * I already submitted the Ogg fix.) However, this won't catch
	 * cases where a loop happens because the read at the end of the
	 * file is typically less than the buffer size.
	 *
	 * This fix addresses this issue, however it may break in
	 * other conditions. Always decode in buffer sizes of powers of 2.
	 * 
	 * The HACK:
	 * If the buffer is short, try filling it up with 0's
 	 * to meet the user requested buffer_size which 
	 * is probably a nice number OpenAL likes, in 
	 * hopes to avoid a possible Loki bug with
	 * short buffers. If looping (which is the main
	 * reason for this), the negative side effect is
	 * that it may take longer for the loop to start

	 * ***** ALC_CONVERT_DATA_UPON_LOADING
	 * This extension allows the caller to tell OpenAL to preconvert to the native Core
	 * Audio format, the audio data passed to the 
	 * library with the alBufferData() call. Preconverting the audio data, reduces CPU 
	 * usage by removing an audio data conversion 
	 * (per source) at render timem at the expense of a larger memory footprint.
	 *
	 *	This feature is toggled on/off by using the alDisable() & alEnable() APIs. This 
	 *	setting will be applied to all subsequent 
	 *	calls to alBufferData().
	 * Update: Some people keep reporting that they see the enable fail on Mac, but I can't reproduce it myself.
	 * Rather than deal with it right now, I think I am going to make it an opt-in thing.
