The other solution might be that, he didn't hear him actually leaving the room, he could've faked the footsteps I guess towards the door. So he could've been inside the entire time. Since he had gingerale earlier he may have not finished his entire glass of gingerale leaving half of it while they got to talking. So he may have given him real ice cubes made of water, but when he opens the safe, Marty would've have to quickly put in his glass of gingerale while removing the glass of ice as he was putting it into the safe. Then later he says "he unlocked the door" this is when he could've left the room and start whistling in the hall, but he had to be basically a silent ninja in his socks to do all this, seems a bit far fetched but how the puzzle is layed out chronologically this could be possible. I wish they had said earlier in the puzzle that he was to keep whistling for 1 hr outside the hall but that isn't said .

Yep. The blind guy knew Marty had "brought ginger ale" but he couldn't have known if he smuggled in some prepared ice cubes. Marty directed the conversation until the violinist made the bet, then put his plan into action. You can't hear ice melting.
