wine users - Mar 2011 - No sound in HOMEFRONT

I just installed Homefront. The installation went fine. I looked up AppDB entry
on it and it looks like the other person rated it silver (albeit he's
running Mac OS), with some annoying mouse bug. He did winetricks directx9
directsound physx. I did nothing of those and it still worked.

Anyway, when I run the game, there's no music/sound in the menu. Then I
started a new campaign, and the movie that plays before the campaign had sound,
so I thought everything was fine. However, when the actual game started, there
was no sound again.

I did winetricks directx9 (and installed it), but when I do winetricks
directsound, I get that directsound doesn't exist.

Here's the console output:

I'm using wine 1.3.13 and would prefer to keep it, since some of my games
apparently don't work with the latest version of wine.


Help?

Did winetricks dsound, didn't help.

call the server of technic support   [Arrow]

Do you have PulseAudio installed? Wine sometimes conflicts with it, so try
removing it if you have it installed.

You could also mess around with the audio settings in winecfg, for example, try
using a different sound driver here (but only one at a time!).

Finally, what kind of sound card are you using? An USB one? Are you sure ALSA
properly detects it in the first place?

What does this even mean? Support is right here... (Also, "call the
server"? Is this a spambot?)
