wine users - Sep 2009 - No sound in Unreal Engine games - wine-1.1.30

Hey everybody,

Can anyone confirm that sound is missing from Unreal Engine based games? 

So far I have no sound in Mass Effect and Unreal Tournament 3. The sound cuts
out completely in Frontlines: Fuel of War. I know that UT3 and Frontlines are
using OpenAL. I'm not so sure about Mass Effect.

You won't see the problem until you're ingame. The bink videos and
intros of the various games appear to produce sound like normal.

Any Ideas? I know that work was done recently to improve OpenAL.

These sound issues were not present when using wine-1.1.29.

I just got done troubleshooting Bioshock - another Unreal Engine game. It's
bad. The game won't even start now. Worked fine with wine-1.1.29.

AL lib: alsa.c:344: Could not open playback device 'hw:0,0': Device or
resource busy

Is anyone else seeing this?
