#16536: Regression: IBM PC audio emulation changed in 2.9.0

Hello ScummVM team,
I would like to report a possible regression in the IBM PC audio emulation
starting with version 2.9.0.
Since ScummVM 2.9.0, the IBM audio emulation does not behave the same as
before. In my experience, the correct and accurate audio emulation was
present in version 2.8.0.
I have verified this using King’s Quest V. This is a game I originally
played on a real IBM PC, so I am familiar with how the audio should sound
on original hardware. From version 2.9.0 onward, the audio sounds
noticeably different and no longer matches what I remember from the real
machine, whereas 2.8.0 matches the original audio behavior correctly.
For this reason, I believe that the IBM audio emulation in 2.8.0 is more
accurate, and that something may have changed or regressed in 2.9.0.
Thank you very much for your work on ScummVM and for taking the time to
look into this.
