Hey folks, Running TeamSpeak while playing WoW, I'm having trouble keeping my microphone going for any length of time. It will work fine for a while, but then suddenly stop working altogether until I force-reload ALSA. The microphone is no longer listed as being available. As far as I can tell, this only happens with games in Wine, but I've only really tested it with WoW. Any idea what this problem could be? It normally seems to happen when passing through high-density zones in-game, but isn't always consistent. Is there any way I can disable audio input for this wine prefix altogether?

Also, does your system have pulseaudio installed?
Somebody posted a reply at some "Spinics" site, which seems to be aggregating all the threads from here. Since it's not here and I can't reply there, I'm going to answer. I'm running TeamSpeak 3 for Linux, but it isn't just TeamSpeak. Skype will also break, and the microphone is completely shut off until I reload Alsa. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit, and I removed PulseAudio since PA gives me too many problems.
