This was done after the players had already been created. To ensure that everything gets set properly it is necessary to pass the desired sample rate to the device's constructor and let it make sure that a proper sample rate gets set.
- implemented a fallback both for sound font lookup and for MIDI device selection so that if some non-working combination is set up, the player will fall back to something that works.

This is necessary to write a universal, device independent wave dumper for MIDIs.
With each format inheriting from the main player class it is not possible to create a generic dumper player.

Use snd_streambuffersize CVAR to set buffer size in kilobytes, from 16 to 1024
Name of existed CVAR from removed FMOD sound backend is used
Increased default size of stream buffer to 64 kB like it was in FMOD backend
This isn't supported with the OpenAL backend, and instead of trying to make a
workaround for it, a better approach would probably be to make a FileReader
implementation that handles URLs.
- added arrays to the config to hold entries for the softsynths' config files. This is not active yet, but will later be used to give the user a list of config options instead of having to type it by hand.
This is somewhat brute-force thanks to the surprising lack of good documentation for the Ogg headers. The only other option would have been some rather bloated library for a function that should be 25-30 lines at most.
The idea is to have more control on the game side instead of dealing with these formats in the backend, which was done for FMod because it already had the decoders implemented.
However, with OpenAL this setup makes no sense and only complicates future extensions that can be better handled at a higher level.
