I have what I'm quite sure is the same problem with a usb headset (logitech
g930). Using either alsa or the 3rd party wine-pulse driver patch (of course I
also tested with vanilla wine + alsa and without pulse even installed), there
are still problems, so I don't believe this to be solely an alsa issue. Sound
from the mic cuts in and out and sounds awful. As others report, it sounds just
fine in steam along with native linux apps, but in tf2 it's messed up.
Additionally, as others said, the output works fine -- it's just the input, no
matter how wine is configured or patched that I've tried.

On the same machine without pulseaudio using wine's alsa driver but on a
non-usb headset, it worked okay for me a while ago. Unfortunately I broke that
headset, so I can't test if it's still the case. I do not believe this to be a
regression either way.
