I believe I installed some alsa packages, and native sounds still worked but did not do anything for wine. It was after trying this and some other things(winepulse)that I reformated the hard drive so as to have a "clean" install for troubleshooting. However if there is a reccomended guide for removing pulseaudio I will certainly try it(or anything else) again. This is something you should ask on Ubuntu forums, but sudo apt-get uninstall pulseaudio is sufficient, I *believe*. If it's not, uninstalling PulseAudio and then compiling the Linux kernel from (a non-Ubuntu) source would. (I heard some PA stuff is patched into the Ubuntu kernel, not sure though).
