As of revision 11012 gnash triggers no wakeups when paused, except
the ones related to resources loading (initial SWF and any dynamically
loaded media).

It's a start. Things can be improved when non-paused too, starting
with sound that in the HDA Intel case wakesup more than the gnash
heart-beat here (98 vs. 70 per second) for just rendering silence
(probably still required for recording audio in dump-gnash).
