This is almost certainly caused by messy OpenAL code, in the latest
version it seems to do horrible things like opening ALSA as soon as the
library is loaded.
I can only very strongly recommend to revert to an earlier, sensible
OpenAL version, going by what I see IMHO it doesn't even fulfill the
lowest quality standards.
