Bug Description

To reproduce:

1. Make sure no application is playing sound through pulseaudio.
2. Start a program in wine.

Any application which tries to play sound through pulseaudio will now fail. For example, playing a video in totem, totem will not play any sound and also the video will pause because it is trying to sync the audio and video.

Alternatively:

1. Open a video in totem.
2. Start a program in wine.

Now the program running in wine will have no sound.

Note that this is a regression. This used to happen before with wine, but was fixed. This wasn't happening even after the recent sound rewrite. It started again some time in the past couple of weeks.

Installing libasound2-plugins:i386 solved it for me (libasound2-plugins were already installed, but not libasound2-plugins:i386). Shouldn't there be a dependency somewhere forcing an install of this?

Christian, yes. That's why it's a bug ;P
It worked in older Ubuntu versions, but Precise has different organization of 32-bit/multiarch packages. Thanks for confirming the fix.

summary: - Wine1.4 blocks sound from pulseaudio
+ Wine1.4 (amd64) missing dependency on libasound2-plugins:i386

Yup, you're right, it needs to be a dependency or at least recommends.

it is however not possible to install libasound2-plugins:i386 via aptitude because of an libjack0 conflicting dependency error

SRU:

Regression potential: None forseen, as installing libasound2-plugins:i386 on an amd64 system should generally not break other applications, and Wine is already broken without it installed.

Because of congestion in the later wine 5 beta releases (my application crawls) I have reverted to this release without problem.

Installing libasound2-plugins:i386 does not fix this problem for me. I am on 12.10 x64.

Btw; the above and installing the right dep also fixed this problem:
"p11-kit: couldn't load module: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

As well as these:
"ALSA lib conf.c:3314:(snd_config_hooks_call) Cannot open shared library libasound_module_conf_pulse.so
ALSA lib seq.c:935:(snd_seq_open_noupdate) Unknown SEQ default"

So it seems there might be some broken installs; either/or from the old ppa or building from source.

is there any fix or workaround for this issue ?

I have installed alsa driver snapshot and install alsa-lib to run test/chmap to test au88x0 driver in order to add support for chmap

Yes that does seem related Dave, especially with the notes about conflicts above.
