alsa: removed snd_pcm_wait() call before writing to playback device. 

This would cause playback problems in certain situations, such as on the
Raspberry Pi. The device that the wait was added for seems to not benefit from
it in modern times, and standard desktop Linux seems to do the right thing
when a USB device is unplugged now, without this patch.

Fixes Bugzilla #3599.
