Bug ID: 35260 Summary: Sound weirdness with XCOM: Enemy Within Product: Wine Version: 1.7.9 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: winealsa.drv Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: lama@lamamail.de Classification: Unclassified
This is a strange one... I'll just describe what happened:
- I'm using the digital out on my sound card. This works fine with everything but this game in WINE - Got the game working after registering XAudio2_7.dll - There is no sound whatsoever ingame (also no sound options beyond a mixer) - After running the game I have no sound anywhere anymore, even after closing all WINE processes. No errors while playing though (so it's not blocked), just quiet - Mixer settings are fine - Turns out the default ALSA device has been changed to the analog output, even after explicitly selecting the digital output (instead of default) in WINE. Only a reboot fixes this. ALSA documentation doesn't even mention this as a possibility. Oh, and game audio still isn't played through that either.
I've tested this with WINE 1.7.9 and built from GIT.
