Possible recent bug disables sound in wine - Ubuntu Studio

Post by Susan Cragin »

I have sound problems in Ubuntu Studio, starting yesterday. These may be caused by a Ubuntu bug, but I wanted to run them by wine users and see if anyone else is having a similar problem.

My configuration:

I use Ubuntu Studio. I installed it clean this morning, with default options.

Then I purged pulseaudio (because pulseaudio does not work with wine)

asoundconf list shows the following
Names of available sound cards:
Intel
Generic (this is the card I use)

set-default-card Generic

Installed wine.
Wine shows the following:

alsa-driver
MIDI Out Devices: Midi Through Port-0
MIDI In Devices: Midi Through Port-0
Mixer Devices:
HDA Intel
HDA-Audio Generic

Installed Dragon NaturallySpeaking.
DNS does not recognize sound from either card.

Ubuntu bug #350160 was filed by someone else, and I added my information to that.

...select Hda-Intel Mixer in Prefs->Sound and switch everything to ALSA? You might also need to add the Alsa driver->use direct hw key in regedit. Check the registry wiki.
Purging pulse probably isn't a good idea. Killall pulseaudio = good.
