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 any threads about that, therefore I am wondering if this is a regression coming into wine 1.1.7, an issue with the new ALSA driver contained in Intrepid Ibex, or if I have to change something in my configuration files. My system config is Intrepid Ibex / Wine 1.1.7 Q6600 + 4gb ram Nvidia 8800GT Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Should you need any other info, please ask. Thanks!

Pulseaudio does not come automatically with Intrepid Ibex I believe. I do not see the device chooser in the top right corner of the screen, like it used to be with Hardy Heron. In order to be useful however, I would like to provide some debug output so that if the problem is located within wine, that it can be fixed for an upcoming version. If there are any commands I should run and provide the output, please mention them.
Are you using ALSA, and if so, does switching sound to OSS in winecfg solve the problem? If so, it could be this bug: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14991

Thanks!I am using Intrepid Studio with wine. Intrepid comes bundled with pulseaudio, and pulseaudio can cause sound problems in wine. In addition, killing it is not easy, because pasuspender is broken as of a couple of updates ago. Try turning everything on, go to: system / administration / system monitor / processes and kill pulseaudio that way, and see if it helps. For now, Intrepid Studio has a couple of problems. For instance, if you try to remove pulseaudio permanently, the system no longer starts up or shuts down cleanly. You may wish to check the ubuntu bug list for known pulseaudio problems.

If so, it could be this bug: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14991I am using ALSA When I switch to OSS in winecfg, I get no sound. The bug report looks a lot like the issue I have. I have commented on it.
Pulseaudio DOES come by default with Ubuntu, user just can't see it. Try typing "killall pulseaudio" - it you won't see any output, it means that PulseAudio was running. I was having the same issue with Interpid Ibex and I added "killall pulseaudio" to my autostart (removing Pulseaudio completely makes user not able to log in).
