[PATCH] usb-audio: don't use empty packets at start of playback

Some widespread USB interface chips with adaptive iso endpoints hang
after receiving a series of empty packets when they expect data.  This
completely disables audio playback on those devices.  To avoid this, we
have to send packets containing silence (zero samples) instead.
