Now this may be some kind of Wine-Pulseaudio incompatibility again. So what we're going to do is use Wine's settings to force it to use the duplex_for_pulse device, instead of the default one, which points to pulse. This is farily easy, according to the ALSA keys in http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys For instance here's an example: [Software\\Wine\\Alsa Driver] 1315011634 "AutoScanCards"="N" "AutoScanDevices"="N" "DeviceCount"="1" "DeviceCTL1"="duplex_for_pulse" "DevicePCM1"="duplex_for_pulse" "UseDirectHW"="N" However, I think you might run into an issue due to not having defined a ctl.duplex_for_pulse, but we'll get there. For now just create those entries so that they match this. BTW, it isn't advised, but you can paste that snippet in the ~/.wine/user.reg file at the end (be sure to back it up first!) and it should work. To make sure you're testing wine's sound, do a wineserver -k and then open up winecfg to test the sound. Cheers, Jorl17
