similar to: Debian 5 no sound in wine.

Whenever I change the sound driver from ALSA to OSS in winecfg all of my steam games are muted. Some of the games doesn't even start, some of them start but are totally silent with OSS. I installed a couple of non-steam games into the same wineprefix, interestingly they can use both sound systems. So this issue is applied only to steam games. If I apply the WINEDEBUG=+dsound parameter when

After hours of searching, I give up and will ask for directions. runing wine 1.1.27 on Ubuntu 9.04 on a T-23 Thinkpad using the onboard sound card and a Plantronics DSP-500 headset. After days of searching I finally got both to work, but limitation in Ubuntu will not allow both to work at the "same time". One or the other. Plantronics only works in a mixed mode ALSA and OSS

I have a USB soundcard that I have tried to run with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. It doesn't work unless I set winecfg to oss instead of alsa. Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? How do I get alsa over USB? Thanks, Susan Cragin

Hello I'm using Debian Squeeze, with my personal compiled Wine-1.3.17. Games run well with this version I think but... I can't seem to get sound working in Wine. Native linux apps like VLC work with sound. Winecfg says "Audio test failed" if I try that. I can only see the OSS driver though I believe I am using ALSA(not sure though). [Image:

Wine requires direct access to sound device(s) to make sound. This is true for both ALSA and OSS driver back-ends. However most sound servers are not compatible with neither of these back-ends. This also true about pulse-audio - it is not fully compatible with Wine. If you using new distro (Fedora 8, Ubuntu 8.04, SuSE 11) and do not have sound you should: 1. Report problem to your distro support

Pre wine version 1.2.26 sound worked fine in lotro and the in game audio options page showed the sound card in a dropdown box and titles for all of the sound option slide bars. In 1.3.26 and now 1.3.27 there is no sound in game and the audio options window does not show any sound card or titles for the sound options or various volume slider bars and all of the bars are set at minimum. The

I have recently formatted my system in order to install Intrepid Ibex, and I am now using it with Wine 1.1.7. I did a backup of the prefixes of the games I was using in Hardy / Wine up to 1.1.5, and imported them in my new installment. The games work normally, but the sound is crackling all the time for each of them; something which was not happening in my former installment. I have not noticed

With last Wine the sound stutters. With last from Ubuntu repository (old) 1.0.1, work near the flawless! I use alsa (pulseaudio -> default -> alsa). ... But sometime wow crash. Now I've tried 1.1.10 and 1.1.11 and the the sound stutters. Please fix this problem :( Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64 Q6600 at 3.2GHz X-Meridian 7.1 nVidia 8800 GT 512Mb Zotac AMP!

I am currently using a gentoo, (so no pulseaudio installed) and I can't get any sound with wine. I 'm trying to use alsa because winecfg deleted the entry of oss. My wine version is 1.3.24 The sound worked one time but doesn't still work...I uninstalled wine, deleted the .wine directory and re-installed but it didn't fix the problem. These are details about my soundcard : >

Hi. I am running Ubuntu 8.04 and wine 0.9.60. I have got loads of steam apps to run including team fortress 2. However, when I join a game in Counter Strike: Source, as soon as I get to the team select, it freezes up, with the gunshot sounds repeating. It then simply closes. I looked on appdb and the main causes are alsa sound, and to make sure only alsa sound is selected in winecfg. I also

I upgraded to karmic yesterday, and ran winecfg. The list of possible sound systems has shrunk to three: oss, jack and eSound. I tried running winecfg plain, and with padsp and pasuspender prefixes. Susan

Hey guys, I am having some problems getting the sound to work with wine, and I was hoping someone here might be able to help me out. This is my first time using wine, so I am still learning about it. Anyway, when I try to run my application, I get an error back: err:wave:DSDB_MapBuffer Could not map sound device for direct access (Input/output error) err:wave:DSDB_MapBuffer Please run winecfg,

I have the latest version of Ubuntu Studio (Karmic) and just re-installed it today. I use non-pulse applications, including Audacity and Dragon NaturallySpeaking running under wine. I have tried disabling pulseaudio every way I know how. I am getting no sound, mostly due to what are described as timeout errors. Ubuntu has been working to make it run with pulseaudio properly disabled, so that

Greetings, I've used wine for several years now, but I've never really gotten involved with development so I'm not sure how or even where this would need to go. I've found a regression in the latest (as of 1-1-09) git of wine; alsa sound doesn't appear to work. It did work from a version of wine I had cloned from git about a week earlier. It also works fine in 1.1.11 release.

Wine and spotify used to work. Now it doesn't, and I don't know why. Main problem is that Wine doesn't give any information back regarding why audio fails, only that it fails. When using winecfg, opening the Audio tag, choosing Alsa Driver and pressing "Test sound", a pop up reports "Audio test failed!". Nothing more. Choosing OSS, switching to emulation, same

I have managed to get TF2 working at an acceptable framerate under Wine. However 3 problems arise when playing it. When I run the game, it always sets my texture detail level to "Low" when I can run at "High" or "Very High" with very little performance loss, but no matter what I do, whenever I exit and restart the game, it reverts the texture detail level back to

Hi all, I'm having a problem with alsa on wine. I'm posting this to both lists--I'm sure that there exist people on both ends who might be able to help. Basically this is it: neither alsa nor oss show up in winecfg. The wine-alsa and wine-oss packages are installed. I have a feeling it's due to 32/64-bitness problems. I'm already having to run all wine apps as wine32

I've removed both alsa and pulseaudio as I've got several problem with the audio (not in wine, in the system). So I've installed OSS which work well but seems not to work in wine. It plays the sample in the audio tab (winecfg) but doesn't work in the apps... there's a manner to get it working?

I use Wine for play World of Warcraft, that support on Windows, 6 channel sounds mixing software. On Ubuntu 8.04 and Wine i get only stereo output. I've tried to do this .asoundrc for "force" use on Wine, of 6channels and I don't get any sound. Code: pcm.!default { type dmix ipc_key 1024 ipc_key_add_uid false # let multiple users share ipc_perm 0660 # IPC permissions

I'm new to using Wine. I'm running UBUNTU 8.04 on a Dell B130/1300 laptop. Ubuntu seems to running fine. I uploaded Motorola Phone tools with no problem using the Wine installer. The program launched ok and even went to the internet an downloaded and installed the updates. The problem is it doesn't see my usb port. How do I get Wine to use the usb port? Also I get no sound out when I
