Ya, I don't use KDE, i just naturally assume it plays a similar role
to Pulseaudio (which also can set sound).

Ya, you probably didn't need to do that.

That's kind of what i would expect to see.

yup, that is part of dmix's function. However, lots of alsa
applications do hog the soundcard.

Have you tried a fresh install of Wine???   you can do this simply by
renaming your .wine folder (as to not lose anything), then try
uninstalling Wine.  After you have re-installed wine and all of it's
packages.  try winecfg then, and see if it will produce sound.  It
will create a new .wine ,  but if the sound works, then you could
replace it with your old .wine

Your problem is a weird one. For you to not have changed anything, and
it just stopped working. very odd.
I would try the clean install of wine and see if it makes a
difference. if it doesn't, there is a good chance it has little to do
with Wine, and more likely something to do with settings being messed
up somewhere on your machine,
maybe some type of corruption. Im not really sure.

sorry i don't have a solution. It's really hard to figure out, without
being in front of your machine..

As for speaker-test, don't bother. that isn't wine specific, just
Linux/ALSA specific. it wont help.
