Where I need sound in wine is with Unreal (the original) and Half-Life. Unreal plays great except that I have no sound at all with the wineoss.drv. If I set wine config to use winealsa.drv I get great music, but the effects lag action by about a second or so. If I use winearts.drv I get great music but no effects. Half-Life is locking up where it seems to be starting sound. I did get sound from wineoss two nights ago, but now nothing and I can't recall changing anything.
I've tried the December and October (2003) builds of wine and the previous release of ALSA. No difference.
I know about the new linux installer for Unreal, but it requires UT, which I don't have and don't really want, so it's not much of an option.
Sound in Linux is great, sound in dosemu is OK (no music, just effects). The output of /proc/asound/oss/sndstat looks as it should.
Can anyone tell me how to fix the Arts or ALSA problems or how to get sound from OSS?
BTW I'm using kernel 2.6.2/Slackware 9.0. I tried kernel 2.4.20 but that also made no difference.
