Is there any interest in adding OpenAL to Wine? I would imagine it's relatively simple to implement the OpenAL dll that would be a simple wrap around the Linux OpenAL library assuming they have the same functionality(from what I know of OpenAL, they should).
Such a DLL was written already by nick burns, but not yet accepted into wine because it broke applications using openal and wasn't ready for prime time yet.
Seach the wine-patches archives for "openal thunk". I think there was consent that a thunk should go in, but a driver comparably to our alsa backend shouldn't.
