You can thank Jorl17, that dude helped me a ton with the Alsa settings/.asoundrc/default.pa stuff. Ahh your on lucid? hmmm, i'm on maverick. Wodering if updated pulse or alsa causes the conflict grabbing of the HW. I know there were some bugs in the pulse code /alsa pulse plugin. Yea I was using wine-pulse patches in 1.3.24 so was a shock when .25/26 came out. Since I haven't overridden permantly my built in pulse, I'm gonna do testing once .28 comes out to see if all the pulseaudio stuff is needed. I really hope not, pita. Also, the multimedia-git with pulse sound compiled in I believe is coming along, so waiting to see where that goes. For now I have sound everywhere, just everytime I reboot I gotta do some funky stuff if I want to play games (which has been decent amoutn lately when I'm not messing with the sound/compiling stuff). -- Sincerely, MacNean C.
