I have 64-bit OpenSUSE 12.1 and I have installed Wine 1.3.37 from the official repo. I'm testing with Fallout and Fallout 2 which both have no 'no sound' issues and have platinum and gold ratings only on all tests. Both games start without a problem except that there is no sound at all. The exclude Black Isle's Fallout games as a problem, I also tested Civilization 2 Multiplayer Gold Edition and it also started without a sound. All games have the following error in common:

Code:
err:dsound:devenum_thread_proc CoCreateInstance failed: 80040154



winecfg Audio tab says it is using winealsa.drv and all devices are set to (System Default). Sound test in winecfg works perfectly. Changing devices seems to take effect only after clicking ok, not when clicking apply. After changing a device to anything other than (System Default), sound test no longer works.

The output of aplay -L is:

Code:

aplay, speaker-test and KDE system sounds work without a problem.

The solutions I have tried:

1) Installing dsound with winetricks. dsound is downloaded and copied correctly, but it ends with the following error:

Code:
Executing wine regsvr32 dsound.dll

------------------------------------------------------                                                                                                                                                                                                                         
Note: command 'wine regsvr32 dsound.dll' returned status 255.  Aborting.



2) Starting Wine with pasuspender. Doesn't help.

3) Killing pulseaudio process. I set autospawn = no in the config to prevent it from restarting. Doesn't help. Event with pulseaudio daemon not running, aplay, speaker-test and KDE system sounds work without a problem, so does sound test in winecfg, but games started in Wine still have no sound.

What am I doing wrong?
