Help request: Wine + alsa on 64-bit Fedora 12

[Walker Shurlds]

Hi all,
I'm having a problem with alsa on wine. I'm posting this to both
lists--I'm sure that there exist people on both ends who might be able
to help. Basically this is it: neither alsa nor oss show up in winecfg.
The wine-alsa and wine-oss packages are installed. I have a feeling
it's due to 32/64-bitness problems. I'm already having to run all wine
apps as wine32 whatever to get sound at all--the 64-bit winecfg crashes
when the audio tab is selected. In the 32-bit, pulse is the only
available driver that shows up, but it crashes after a minute or two of
use with an app run through wine.

So question is this: is there an easy way to make alsa or oss show up
in wine32 winecfg in Fedora 12 64-bit? Or am I better off switching
completely to a 32-bit installation (which I'm also considering for
other reasons.)

Other possible problem causers are that I'm using the Planet CCRMA
kernel, and I have 3 sound cards, but I figure these should only cause
problems between alsa and hardware (and they have, and I've
fixed/workedaround them), not between wine and alsa.

Thanks,
Walker

Uninstall 64 bit Wine. It's not ready for general use.

Well that was easy. And I'd wasted so much time on it... Should have
asked here first.

Thanks.
