[Openal] AL_POSITION affects Doppler Shift

You're correct that the position and Doppler shouldn't be related in
OpenAL. I'm assuming that you're using Windows (since you reference a
.zip file in your email), and there isn't any code in any of the Windows
OpenAL implementations which could do that. The only thing I can think
of that would explain this actually happening is that there is a
misbehaving DS3D driver in use which is applying Doppler shift. Try
explicitly opening the "Generic Software" device with alcOpenDevice and
see if anything changes. The GS device only uses DirectSound to output
the final mix -- the OpenAL library (wrap_oal.dll in this case) is doing
the work.
