You have to write your own function. I'm not sure what dm_ variables you
are talking about, though: there are no such things in Allegro!

But anway. Just call allocate_voice() and voice_start() to trigger the
sound, sit there in a loop polling voice_get_position() until it has
finished, and then call deallocate_voice() to free it...
