PSA: Wine 1.7.51 and 32 bit audio

After upgrading Wine on my system I noticed that the audio for my Street Fighter 4 was no longer working. I also noticed a reddit post here which seem to detail a similar problem. If you would like to fix audio for 32 bit games in Wine I found that installing lib32-openal fixed my issue. I discovered that Wine was looking for "libopenal.so.1" thanks to PlayOnLinux's debug log.

Hope this helps others.

Glad you figured it out, next time try checking archlinux wiki before searching .

Look up the configuration - sound section of the wine page.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Oh wow, the answer is already there. I didn't even check the wiki this time around, I just worked it out myself in a few minutes. But good advice, I will check the wiki from now on!

Alternatively check the changelog when there's a wine version bump, first change mentions that XAudio2 is now implemented via OpenAL
