Run emulator with easy hacks

#!/bin/bash
# Execute an emulator which is linked to this script, e.g. ln -s ~/bin/emurun ~/bin/dolphin-emu-nogui
# Then execute ~/bin/dolphin-emu-nogui to wrap it in this, disables suspend timers sets the TV volume and moves the cursor
# out of the way. Importantly it kills pulseaudio which does horrible things to audio.
