As I see that the PA team is preparing release candidates for 1.0, I wonder whether the Wine team communicated them the issues we face. Browsing open tickets http://pulseaudio.org/report/1 I found nothing obvious.
The launchpad ticket I've been following is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-plugins/+bug/805940 Their solution was to introduce yet another option, handle_underrun=2, which handles underruns even better than handle_underrun=1! Or something. Really I don't know. handle_underrun=2 is now the new default, unless it's overridden by a user- or application-specified configuration. Which Wine does, so we no longer get this new-and-improved default... Have I mentioned my unending love for audio APIs?
Some testing has shown that handle_underrun=1 and handle_underrun=2 both work well with winealsa.drv. So we'll probably drop the handle_underrun=1 override after alsa-plugins 1.0.25 becomes common.
