Bug ID: 57280
           Summary: Invalid state is propagated through to pulse leading

           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux

          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: winepulse.drv

journalctl log of pipewire, pipewire-pulse and wireplumber units from the time
the game is launched to the time it's closed down.

A sound stream is never created for some games using Wine's pulseaudio driver
and pipewire-pulse as the backend. Booting the games with another audio stream
playing, all audio cuts out for a few seconds before coming back, yet the sound
stream for the game is never created and doesn't appear in /dev/snd/*. Games I
noticed this in were Risk of Rain Returns (various versions of Proton) and
FINAL FANTASY XIV (various versions of wine and proton ranging from 7.x to 9.x)

I've attached an extremely verbose log below of journalctl from pipewire,
pipewire-pulse and wireplumber when the issue happens. The relevant piece of
output where I'd start investigating is

Line 34598: loka 07 14:11:14 hypernova pipewire-pulse[15490]:
mod.protocol-pulse: client 0x578d3de419c0 [FINAL FANTASY XIV]: ERROR command:-1
(invalid) tag:2 error:25 (Input/output error).

on the #pipewire IRC channel I was told this stems from winepulse.drv sending
an invalid state through to pulse and therefore through to pipewire-pulse.

I cross-checked with pulseaudio rather than pipewire-pulse, and the issue does
not appear.

Workaround:
In the meantime I have fixed this issue by setting wine to use winealsa.drv for
the affected games, which pipewire-alsa picks up as normal.

Can you reproduce this with upstream (not proton) wine?

I tried various versions before, just now I also tried 9.18-2 that seems to be
the newest available to me in the repo, with the same results.
