Do not use `ma_decoder_seek_to_pcm_frame()` as a means to reuse a data source to play multiple
instances of the same sound simultaneously. Instead, initialize multiple data sources for each
instance. This can be extremely inefficient depending on the data source and can result in
glitching due to subtle changes to the state of internal filters.
