Tweak engine startup, initial silence

Browse Source 
This can help when running with very low latency and the
initial process callback is [indirectly] expensive.

E.g. load a heavy session the a RPi4, initial setup can pull
in a lot of data, which blocks the bus.

In particular with the ALSA backend this can lead to poll timeout
which effectively stops the backend.
