Description

Hi,
I have recreated the same issue described here:
https://github.com/libretro/Lakka/issues/163

Basically. If mupen64plus-libretro is built with HAVE_NEON=1 and ARM_NEON defined then the audio does not work. There are not errors or segfaults reported, just no sound. Defining HAVE_NEON=0 and undefining ARM_NEON produces sound. Tested with most recent commit of repo (as of today) and built on Odroid C1. Did I miss something obvious?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing-audio behavior on an Odroid C1 with HAVE_NEON=1 and ARM_NEON defined, then compare it with both settings disabled. Trace the audio path and NEON-specific build code; done means audio works with NEON enabled without introducing errors or regressions.
