Which is not a fix but a workaround and not a choice on BSD.
Not a fix, but a workaround on FreeBSD, that doesn't require you to switch to emulated sound
1) Create a new group "nomixer" by editting /etc/group
e.g. nomixer:*:2000:
2) Add the following 2 lines to /etc/devfs.conf:
own mixer root:nomixer perm mixer 0606
3) Modify the wine binary as such:
chgrp nomixer /usr/local/bin/wine chmod g+s /usr/local/bin/wine
This basically means that wine doesn't have access to /dev/mixer so can't alter anything.
You as a user still retain access, and also, any wine apps that have a volume control STILL work, because that volume is not changed using /dev/mixer
