alsa-project/alsa-lib issue #172 was edited from shoober420:
The recent alsa-lib commit https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-lib/commit/95eb312fade1908a2c944e9de462... borks OpenAL from building. I thought it was an issue with OpenAL, but he mentions that its an issue with alsa-lib (https://github.com/kcat/openal-soft/issues/592#issuecomment-903211857). Here is the OpenAL build log just in case and a snippet of the OpenAL build error.
