Summary: Winecfg should allow configuring sound on a per app basis Product: Wine Version: 1.1.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: source Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: programs AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: austinenglish@gmail.com
Most things in winecfg can be configured on a per app basis, but sound cannot. This would help some apps (e.g. Steam), which conflict on sound. This way, steam.exe could be disabled, but it's child apps would still get sound.

Closing won't fix. Create separate wineprefixes.

I believe this deserves a bit more discussion before closing. Granted, I don't know as much about the sound system, but from what I've seen in apps and the code, something along these lines should be feasible.
Untargetting until the problem/solution is better understood.

--- Comment #3 from Vitaliy Margolen vitaliy@kievinfo.com 2008-07-23 18:06:11 --- If you have one driver loaded for one program how do you proposing to unload that driver and load another driver for second program? Oh you can't, those programs are running at the same time, so they will use one or the other driver.
No this is a "system" wide setting that can not be set per app. Same as you can't have two versions of wineserver running for a single wineprefix.
No Unless you have some other ideas, this is won't fix.
The comment you linked to is bogus. It avoids the problem not fixes it. Pulse audio is deficient by design and does not provide enough functionality to Wine. It's claim that it has perfect mixing capabilities doesn't hold the water it seems. Otherwise you wouldn't need to disable sound for Steam so something else can use that sound. So no point in fixing something that's broken by design.
Closing won't fix.
