Yea wine 1.3.3 whatever changed that.  You should be able to safely
ignore this part, but you can also I believe set this in the registry.

If you only have 1 card, i'ts probably safe to say hw:0 should work.
But:  aplay -l


> Lastly, under Kubuntu 10.04 LTS, I found under "System Settings-> MultiMedia" a dialogue that allows me to prioritise devices to use. It also has a "backend" tab to prioritise back ends. The only one listed is "Xine". So now I'm confused. Am I not using PulseAudio then? I thought that was the default. What is this Xine? I've never heard of it before.

Xine is a multimedia player AFAIK.  So the MultiMedia must be to
prioritize multimedia programs, not actual sound devices.  I think
Xine can be a bankend to send sound to other programs, but I believe
it's still using either Pulse or Alsa. You might want to install the
pulse-audio manager thingy.  apt-get install padevchooser  (IIRC) will
show you your sinks/etc that are being used, along with what programs
are using pulse for sound.

If you do thhat Pulse goes through alsa, alsa devices won't show
(youtube/flash in chrome, Wine programs, etc.).
