Hi,
some native machines on test.winehq time out the winmm:wave tests. http://test.winehq.org/data/8c00ee0beff1a9a6be08f32d821186c798d15b9d/win7_wi...
Their logs show that they play ~25 times 1 second silence and a few times 0.5 second silence. I believe winetest.exe kills tests that take longer than 30 seconds. That explains the apparent timeout.
The reason that they play that long is that they are equipped with several sound cards, each of which being used in turn.
It's good IMHO that all sound cards are used. However, we should evaluate whether all combinations of flags that winmm:wave tests make sense or whether some could be played shorter than 1s.
Or perhaps increase the timeout for winmm:wave?
