Are you using Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid)?
Yes. Also, if you are do you have the ALSA audio driver set in winecfg? No, OSS Does sound work in other programs (e.g. flash in
Firefox). Yes, everything but WoW in wine.
If these are true, you may be hitting an issue with the latest Ubuntu and/or wine.
Some things you could try are:
- Set the audio driver in winecfg to OSS.
Already doing that.
- Run "sudo alsactl init" - you may need to run alsamixer or another volume
control program to increase the volume of the audio afterwards.
Is this a typo? sudo alsactl init gets me "alsactl: Unknown command 'init'..."
- Run "sudo alsa reset", then follow (2).
I must be using a different type of alsa then you are familiar with. "Usage: /sbin/alsa {unload|reload|force-unload|force-reload|suspend|resume}" So I reloaded, no effect
- Google "ubuntu intrepid no sound" for other suggestions.
Does that work for you?
If not, it could be bug 15559 (winealsa sound regression: scratchiness/stutter in multip...) and the related bug 16015 (Cepstral SwiftTalker hangs when rendering text to audio).
I will check these bugs. Thanks for your help so far. No dice yet.
