music_native2: Playing a MIDI can cause further MIDI music to not play

1. Enter the import music menu
2. Play a song (necessary? Maybe, maybe not)
3. Exit the menu, back to the main menu
4. Enter the import music menu again

The music will not play any more, or will only play one note (I get the former, while Kizul gets the latter)

Hmm. It only affects MIDIs for me. OGGs/MP3s still play fine. >.>

Yes, that is correct (and expected). As soon as I'm done with a little patch I'm writing, I'll figure out what's going on here.

Also, it only applies to _native2, but the dropdown doesn't have it listed, so I assigned it to _native.

Actually, I was just cruising through an RPG that has more than one MIDI song, and after the first MIDI plays, the other ones only play their first note. It doesn't seem to be exiting the Import Music menu that does it. o.O

This is not an ubersetzung blocker because music_native2 is not the default backend.

This apparently has something to do with the sequences of calls to the music backend. I did not encounter this bug until I opened the Import Song browser from the Import Music menu, playing an OGG file (any seems to do) which was the first file in the directory. After importing the OGG file (and after restarting Custom to fix the problem) playing it by browsing to its song entry does NOT trigger the bug.

When MIDI files refuse to play, in ?_debug.txt I see:
midiStreamRestart error
The device hasn't been opened...?
