World of Warcraft in Wine 1.0rc1 with Creative x-fi

[stealthkk]

All other games have sound except wow.
I recently updated to 1.0rc1 from the last version (whatever it was).
I have an x-fi and the sound was working. Now for the life of me I can't get it to have sound in wow. Other games (like Guild Wars) seem to be fine.
Anyone experiencing the same issue with this setup?
Oh and btw I have tried messing with the wow config (even deleting the config file) to no avail. Perhaps there is an option Im not aware of?

Did you happened to upgrade distro too? Make sure pulseaudio is killed before you start Wine.

I have recently upgraded to CentOS 5 Kernel 2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.
I've posted the output of my wow sound log below...looks like it cant create a hardware buffer and it wont revert to software, but why? im using the newest creative x-fi linux x64 drivers v1.18.
Sorry for the dumb question but whats pulseaudio and what would its process be if it were running?
OH, I also forget to mention that if I uninstall the x-fi drivers and install the oss-linux-v4.0-1015 64 bit package for OSS, i DO get sound...but then I can't use the gnome volume control; it complains that there is no gstreamer plugin. this is not good for me because then the bass, etc settings are unreachable and everything sounds like crap. Help!
