wine users - Jul 2010 - Half Life 2 Episode 1 Audio and Fullscreen issues wine1.2rc7

I recently updated to the newest stable wine through the ppa for Ubuntu. I
didn't have problems running Half Life 2 E1 before upgrading but now I have
a few issues. When launching the game it's in a sort of a windowed mode and
then when it goes to load the main menu it tries to go fullscreen but I can
still see my dock and my top panel. If I adjust the screen resolution and set it
back I can solve this issue. But when I do that, the audio quits on the game. On
my previous version of Wine I had the fullscreen bug which I could fix, but I
never got the audio problem.

Just another update. I played through the whole Half Life 2 game before getting
to E1 on the old version of wine with not issues. After trying it out now, I
have no audio on it either. Obviously an issue with this version of Wine, any
fixes?

Do you know what the version of Wine you were using before updating to 
the new stable version?

Also, can you do the following from a terminal session:

wine --version

This is to insure that you did, indeed, update to Wine 1.2 and did not 
regress back to Wine 1.0.1.

Thank you.

I'm definitely on Wine 1.2. I think I was on Wine 1.1.31 before upgrading,
not exactly positive though, I just can't remember for certain. I was told
after filing the bug to run a regression test so I will when I find enough time
to.
