When I first install wine using the default repository in Ubuntu 9.04 and run winecfg I get the following error: wine: created the configuration directory '/home/bill/.wine' err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element fixme:system:SetProcessDPIAware stub! fixme:iphlpapi:NotifyAddrChange (Handle 0x7d0049e8, overlapped 0x7d0049cc): stub fixme:shell:DllCanUnloadNow stub wine: configuration in '/home/bill/.wine' has been updated. err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element fixme:jack:JACK_drvLoad error loading the jack library libjack.so.0, please install this library to use jack Then I ran it again and it did this: err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element fixme:jack:JACK_drvLoad error loading the jack library libjack.so.0, please install this library to use jack Then I installed jackd and ran it again. It brought up the wine window and I had no messages printed in the terminal. Then when I clicked on the audio tab I got this: err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element and the dialog box inside the wine window kind of froze up/messed up graphically.
