[Bug 10910] New: winealsa and PulseAudio

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10910

Summary: winealsa and PulseAudio
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.51.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-binary
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

winealsa is unable to work with PulseAudio.

This is my /etc/asound.conf:

pcm.pulse {
    type pulse
}
ctl.pulse {
    type pulse
}
pcm.!default {
    type pulse
}
ctl.!default {
    type pulse
}

This is registry entries for Alsa configurations:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Alsa Driver]

"AutoScanCards"="N"

"AutoScanDevices"="N"

"DeviceCount"="1"

"DeviceCTL1"="pulse"

"DevicePCM1"="pulse"

"UseDirectHW"="N"

And I get this error in wine log:

err:alsa:ALSA_CheckSetVolume Could not find 'PCM Playback Volume' element

I tracked it in wine source code to file dlls/winealsa.drv/alsa.c

With following comment:

/* Setup and find an element id that exactly matches the characteristic we want
 ** FIXME:  It is probably short sighted to hard code and fixate on PCM
Playback Volume */

Unfortunetly I know to little about Alsa to fix it.
