F11-for-XO1.5 Release 10.1.1 Release Candidate 2

[John Maloney]

Hi, Bert and Derek.

Derek just send me the combined version. I tested playback and  
recording on the XO 1.5 and it was perfect. Hooray!

I did NOT test to verify that it survives suspect resume, as Derek's  
previous version did. Hopefully someone else has verified that.

It sounds as though this fixed version of the ALSA plugin will get  
into the XO Squeak VM package. In that case, should I omit it from the  
next version of Scratch? (A new version of XO Scratch is coming soon  
to include the Lego WeDo plugin which Derek just finished.)

Many thanks to Derek and Sayamindu for their hard work.
