wine users - Jan 2011 - Wave audio problem

I have some problems with wave audio in Wine. It sais that my device does not
support any format at all. I run the following


Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include <cstdio>

typedef int (*EnumDevicesCallback)(const WAVEOUTCAPS* caps,void* param_through);

int enumDevices(EnumDevicesCallback onDevice,void* param_through)
	{
	unsigned int n_devs=waveOutGetNumDevs();
	unsigned int i=0;

	WAVEOUTCAPS caps;
	do
		{
		waveOutGetDevCaps(i,&caps,sizeof(caps));
		if(!onDevice(&caps,param_through))
			{return i;}
		i++;
		}
	while(i!=n_devs);

	return -1;
	}

void printMMVersion(MMVERSION ver,FILE* file)
	{
	fprintf(file,"%u.%u",ver>>8,ver&0xff);
	}

void printDevCaps(const WAVEOUTCAPS* caps,FILE* file)
	{
	fprintf(file,"Device %x:%x driver version
",caps->wMid,caps->wPid);
	printMMVersion(caps->vDriverVersion,file);
	fprintf(file," (%s)\n",caps->szPname);
	fprintf(file,"dwFormats=%x\n",caps->dwFormats);
	fprintf(file,"wChannels=%u\n",caps->wChannels);
	fprintf(file,"dwSupport=%u\n",caps->dwSupport);
	putc('\n',file);
	}

int checkDevice(const WAVEOUTCAPS* caps,void* param_through)
	{
	printDevCaps(caps,(FILE*)param_through);
	return 1;
	}

int main()
	{
	enumDevices(checkDevice,stdout);

	return 0;
	}




And get this output:

fixme:mixer:ALSA_MixerInit No master control found on UA-25, disabling mixer

Device 2:68 driver version 1.0 (USB Audio)
dwFormats=0

In Windows (on the same computer) i get

Device 1:64 driver version 5.10 (EDIROL UA-25)
dwFormats=bffff
wChannels=65535
dwSupport=44

Device 18:149 driver version 5.3 (MME EDIROL UA-25 Out)
dwFormats=f00
wChannels=2
dwSupport=32

Device 1:64 driver version 5.10 (Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit)
dwFormats=bffff
wChannels=65535
dwSupport=44

It looks like it finds the UA-25, which is the one that has speakers, but
nothing more. Is it a but or is it something in my configuration of ALSA?

I have stopped pulseaudio

But WAVE_MAPPER is defined in Windows. How do I tell wine to use a specific
device as WAVE_MAPPER? It looks like it does not refer to any of the real
devices because the caps differs from all.

Set DeviceCount to 1, and DevicePCM1 to the ALSA PCM device you want to use (ex:
"default:2").
See this for details:

That only adds more units to the list. What I want is the same list and
WAVE_MAPPER should be exactly the same device as one of the other.

It probably depends on how to define "first". Is it sure that the one
I select here is the "first"

Then my problem probably lies in my ALSA setup but some applications in
GNU/Linux actually lets the user select the device in the application obviously
without changing the ALSA configuration (otherwise wine had worked "out of
the box" now). Could that be implemented in wine if I for some reason want
Wine to use another default device than the rest of the system? This is not
necessary for me though. Now I need to do some ALSA configuration research. But
thanks for the help.
