[Xastir] Fix the Interface error

[David Ranch]

Is the soundmodem process running?  Xastir won't start it for you.  Btw, 
though soundmodem still works, it's been abandoned for years.  You'll 
have much better luck with Direwolf in the long run as it supports 
multi-bit error correction and is under active development.
