Bug Description

We should get rid of the pasuspender call and handle the Audio hardware occupied case inside Mixxx

Currently Mixxx start is still more reliable with pasuspender, because the
average user has no idea that
Mixxx needs exclusive access to the sound hardware.
It tricky and would be annoying to reconfigure Mixxx sound hardware
when starting it while the hardware
is occupied because lets say Firefox displays a web page with an add
that includes audio.

Possible solution:

"The configured Audio Hardware is in use by Firefox. Please close
Firefox and continue. "
"Quit" "Reconfigure" "Continue" <- grayed out until the audio hardware
is free

Changed in mixxx:
status: New → Confirmed
importance: Undecided → Wishlist
