Latest CVS Wine winmm

Hello,

I tried running Pajama Sam today (a Humongous Entertainment game), which used 
to run, with some sound problems, a while ago. Now, I get a dialog box on 
startup, saying that "No sound card was detected".

'wine -debugmsg +wave,+msys' shows multiple instances of the message:

trace:mmsys:DriverCallback Null !

- From a quick look at mmsystem.c, it's not immediately clear whether this is a 
problem or not.

At some point later on, I get:

err:msacm:wodCallback Bad data

But, this only happens after I close the dialog box, so that can't be the 
cause of the failure.

Again, this used to work before. I first tried it with Simon's recent patch, 
and then checked out current the CVS version of mmsystem.c, and I don't see a 
difference.

Any ideas? I have a complete dump the trace messages, but I'd rather not post 
it here, since it's fairly big.

that fully normal if the waveOut device has been opened without
notification
request
> err:msacm:wodCallback Bad data

that's stranger...

first of all, do you know if the program uses MCI playback ?
if so, you could try to run the native MCI drivers to see if any diff
araises

but, to start with, I think we should look at the reasons which lead to
the 'No sound card was detected'
could you send me the the relay lines before the dialog box comes up so
we can get an idea where's the problem comes from...

afterwards, I'll need the -debugmsg +wave,+mmsys,+mci,+msacm trace
thx

I've looked at the patches I've posted.  My audio.c
readability patch has been committed as 1.45 and has
some known issues that Eric has pointed out (and I'm
working on).  That said, I don't think it's the cause
of this problem.  You can revert the patch:

cd dlls/winmm/wineoss
rm audio.c
cvs -z3 update -r 1.44 audio.c

[sic] And rebuild.  If that fixes your problem, please
 let me know.

If that doesn't fix your problem, you can go back to
the latest CVS version of audio.c:

rm audio.c
cvs -z3 update -A audio.c
