If you install the package pavucontrol you can turn devices off and on
through the GUI for pulseaudio.

I don't know about wine and PA, but if wine doesn't support PA, then
you were probably using the default routing through alsa, in which
pulse imitates alsa (I think).  As far as config of wine goes, your
ideas are probably the right direction.

Even if the wine-pulseaudio package means that wine is actually using
PA, it's possible that the complexity is causing problems that alsa
might not have.  Did you try stopping and restarting pulse?  From
memory, I think that would be
pulseaudio --kill
pulseaudio --start

You might try a search to see if someone else has had this problem
with wine and solved it.
