output/alsa: clear the `period_buffer` in LockCaughtError()

The method Cancel() assumes that the `period_buffer` must be empty when `active==false`, but that is not the case when Play() fails. Of course the assertion in Cancel() is not 100% correct, but I decided to rather fix this in LockCaughtError() because the `period_buffer` should only be accessed from within the RTIO thread, and this is the only code path where `active` can be set to `false` with a non-empty `period_buffer`. Fixes #423
