DIRECTOR: Infinite Loop during Spaceship Warlock demo 1.1.1

Description

While running Spaceship Warlock Demo 1.1.1 downloaded from the ScummVM demo page, after several minutes ScummVM gets in an infinite loop. A spaceship blasts off while the jingle plays ("Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh! Spaceeeeshiiiip War-lock!"), and then it repeats ad infinitum. The scummvm.log file just shows this line repeated every three seconds until I force quit:

There is no longer a softlock at this point. Instead, the whole demo repeats (and softlocks at a later point with an alien jumping around). I don't know if repeating the whole demo is the correct behavior or not.

The demo is designed to loop from the beginning, for computer dealers to show off. The jumping around softlock should be fixed by https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/6227/commits/81a678e18b43a337ccabff2ea119d78d2718e6ec when it gets merged in.
