My sound card was the on-board Intel HDA for my motherboard, Asus M4A78 Plus.
Since my audio jack headset (Sennheiser PC150) that used the Intel HDA broke (I
broke it on accident :P), I disabled that sound card in the BIOS and I am using
my new USB Logitech G930 headset with Pulseaudio.

Pulseaudio and wine are configured to use 48000 sample rate, but I also tried
using the regular 44100 rate before with the same results. I've tried pretty
much every combination imaginable of vanilla-alsa/3rd-party-pulseaudio drivers
in wine and with-or-without pulseaudio itself installed, with identical
results.

I don't know what the default device was for the Intel HDA or know how to find
out even if my headset was still working, but I would guess it was plughw
because I had to use that for TeamSpeak3 to function before.

.. The rest of your post I can't make sense of past winealsa.drv, and I'm
assuming you're not speaking to me. If that is incorrect, let me know.
