The fact is Ubuntu switched to PulseAudio starting with 8.04 and is
providing Alsa/OSS compatibility ever since.
So Alsa is probably not Canonical's main center of interest.

Wine, OTOH, has drivers for OSS and alsa, but won't support PulseAudio
anytime soon (unless someone volunteers to write working PulseAudio
support, which is not a small feat; even then (s)he would still have a
hard time integrating into wine source tree).

IME standard Ubuntu sound works well enough in Wine, unless you have
different sound sources (like maybe normal game sound + some chat).
pulseaudio --kill can help if PA froze/no sound available.

I've not been able to make OSS work in 10.10 (or jack) though so I'm
stuck with alsa/PA compatibility issues.

My first recommandation would be to try upgrading to 10.10 (or testing
from a live cd) and check if the problem is still existing.
