Comment (by waltervn):

 In SQ3 it does appear that in DOSBox the music actually stops playing if
 you set volume to 1 (though residual AdLib sounds can still be heard). In
 ScummVM it keeps playing.

 Note: IIRC, the OPL2 velocity control only goes to "very quiet", there's
 no "off" setting, so you cannot go completely silent by controlling
 velocity alone.

 In any case, I suggest we postpone working on these kinds of issues until
 the MIDI player has been rewritten. I have a lot of new driver code that
 has been collecting dust for years, pending this rewrite.
