Thanks for your responses. @Ma Xiaojun: No, I update the kernel whenever possible or necessary so it was a different kernel. The Wine version that did work back then was 1.3.29 (I've looked it up...). @dimesio: I'm happy to get rid of that Winepulse.drv driver but I don't even know where it comes from. I guess installing directmusic or dsound did it. Because it appeared after installing those files. Anyway, the modern Wine versions choose automatically the sound driver so apparently Wine *thinks* Winepulse.drv is appropriate whether or not it is supported. So I guess the only way of getting rid of winepulse is removing it. How can I do this in a safe manner?
