Prevent ALSA audio corruption

When using the ALSA driver, corruption would occur if `snd_pcm_writei`
was unable to consume the entire sound buffer. This would occur
frequently on the Raspberry Pi 3 which uses the `snd_bcm2835` audio
driver.

This bug resulted from incorrect pointer math on line 187, resulting in
the sample source pointer being advanced by `total * ad->channels` bytes
instead of `total * ad->channels` samples. In my opinion, the best fix
is to change `*src` to type `int16_t`, since that is the sample type in
use.

Fixes #43927.
