winecfg Audio tab crash - OS X Snow Leopard
Hi all, I built Wine 1.2-RC3 via Macports today on my Macbook Pro, running OS X 10.6.3. Just noticed a problem I've never had before - whenever I run winecfg and click on the Audio tab, Wine crashes. Thought it might have been something weird in my ~/.wine, but I tried with a fresh Wine prefix and still had the same problem. Any ideas? Sample output follows: WINEPREFIX=~/.winetest1 winecfg

I've installed wine and warcraft III with no problems; however, when i try to run wc3 it prompts me to insert the CD (which is definitely
