Summary: Blizzard Downloader launched from inside WoW locks the sound device. Product: Wine Version: 1.1.41 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-dsound AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: renrutal@gmail.com
Steps to reproduce:
1) Start wow.exe 2) Log in 3) The World of Warcraft client downloads the updater then launches it, and exits 4) While Blizzard Downloader is active, you cannot listen to any sound
If I execute Blizzard Downloader manually, sound works fine.
Tested playing sounds with Amarok, aplay, KDE system settings (which segfaults), mplayer and many other players. None outputed a sound.
Using mplayer to play any sound file while Blizzard Downloader is active wields this debug message:
