#16326: AGOS: Simon 1 DOS CD - MT-32 instrument bug (original game bug)

----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
 The MT-32 soundtrack for the original DOS CD version of Simon the Sorcerer
 has a bug where the game does not reinitialize instruments properly when
 switching between music tracks, requiring a manual MT-32 reset SysEx to be
 sent before each track change in order for them to sound correct.

 Compare the Great Hierophant's recording of the pub music track
 (https://youtu.be/P41JWn0foCs?si=It2qyZcP_80uW9H-&t=798) with this clip
 from a playthrough on original hardware
 (https://youtu.be/xaKCfJtq9fA?si=JrXQ4wpmSxFMLBbW&t=690).

 Granted, this only seems to affect the original DOS CD version. I've also
 tested the DOS floppy and Windows CD versions in both ScummVM and DOSBox,
 and both play the music just fine. As it only occurs in one particular
 version of the original game, I suppose I should put this down as a
 feature request.
