If our `ring_buffer` is smaller than the ALSA-PCM buffer (if the latter has more than the 4 periods we allocate), it can happen that the start threshold is crossed and ALSA switches to `SND_PCM_STATE_RUNNING`, but the `ring_buffer` is empty. In this case, MPDD will generate silence, even though the ALSA-PCM buffer has enough data. This causes stuttering (#420). This commit amends an older workaround for a similar problem (commit e08598e7e2526b65fd8790a49794c1d4d00945d0) by adding a snd_pcm_avail() check, and only generate silence if there is less than one period of data in the ALSA-PCM buffer. Fixes #420
