If you reset, set the score offset, and then recompile, then the score
offset is lost because the compile also implies reset unless you call
csoundPreCompile() first (which also resets by the way). So, you can
either set the score offset between calling csoundPreCompile() and
csoundCompile() (in this case, it may be overridden by the
-+skip_seconds command line flag), or directly after csoundCompile(),
or after any perform calls that returned zero.
Note that if you are performing in a separate thread, then setting the
offset (and in fact, most other Csound API calls using that particular
instance) while the thread is running should be done from the thread.
