What steps will reproduce the problem?

OK, so the issue is that it's possible to set up an infinite loop and then attempt to decode the loop - this makes the loop not take effect, as the stream hasn't been decoded first, but no compile or runtime error is generated, making for a silent "bug". The player works normally once, but then goes silent after the first playthrough.

// byteData is a []byte that contains audio in wav format.

byteReader := bytes.NewReader(byteData)

sampleRate := audio.CurrentContext().SampleRate()

// Loop the audio byte data; of course, this doesn't make sense
looped := audio.NewInfiniteLoop(byteReader, int64(len(byteData)))

// Decode the looped data; these two should be switched in ordering
stream, err := wav.DecodeWithSampleRate(sampleRate, looped)

if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

It might be good to make the DecodeWithSampleRate() functions panic if they're given *audio.InfiniteLoop as a source, since it doesn't make sense to decode a loop as it should already be decoded.

What is the expected result?

Maybe a panic?

What happens instead?

No error in compile-time or run-time - the audio just plays back normally once, then looping fails.

Anything else you feel useful to add?
