Summary: sound broken in some programs when OSS4 is used Product: Wine Version: 1.1.3 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-dsound AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: notasas@yahoo.com
There is a regression in 1.1.3 (and up to 1.1.6, 1.1.2 works fine) where some programs don't have sound when OSS4 drivers are used with X-fi card. The example programs are Starcraft, Diablo II (yes I use wine for gaming). Some games are not affected by this bug (World of Warcraft).
I've determined the commit responsible for this:
commit dc224421416bd2616bfd52431388a6f9630bc860 Date: Mon Aug 18 21:00:26 2008 +0200 dsound: Tune some parameters to make pulseaudio work.
I've reverted this commit on my copy of wine and it works fine for a while now. OSS4 is the only choice to have sound for some people, so it would be nice if this got fixed.
