[PATCH] dmix: fix inconsistent status

[Cheng Sun <chengsun9@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

Following on from my previous email with subject "1.1.3 bug report:
dmix reports inconsistent status", this is a preliminary patch which
fixes the issue.

Comments are welcome. In particular note that I'm not very familiar
with this code, and in particular I still don't quite understand what
the original commit which introduced this bug (38a2d2e) is meant to be
doing.

Note also that if this patch is committable, based on the commit
comment for 38a2d2e I think there might be an analogous change to be
made to faf53c1.

Cheers,
Cheng
