Plus, you're also seeing this with other WINE sound drivers (you said in the bug report you tried the ALSA driver and here you tried the ESD driver), so it can't really be WinePulse's fault. If this is really networking, it may be something mundane like a TCP port conflict (i.e. PulseAudio's TCP server using the port your game wants to use). Kevin Kofler
