Description

The Windows interface frontend build currently has no audio.
Culprit seems to be this commit: https://github.com/TASEmulators/desmume/commit/9f4e6992fb3972c660fe92dbd7f73e3903fe900b (by @rofl0r).

I don't really know why anything there would break audio, but maybe I'm just missing something obvious. When the commit is reverted, audio works again, however the framerate drops to about 15fps.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing audio in the Windows interface frontend build and inspect commit 9f4e6992fb3972c660fe92dbd7f73e3903fe900b, comparing it with the behavior after reverting that commit. Trace the affected audio and framerate behavior, then verify that audio works without reducing performance to about 15fps.
