[SOLVED] Playing sound simultaniously from wine and other applications
I'm using Pulseaudio with the following packages installed:
~> pacman -Q | grep 'alsa\|pulse'
alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1
alsa-plugins 1.0.27-2
alsa-utils 1.0.27.2-1
lib32-alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1
lib32-libpulse 5.0-1
libpulse 5.0-1
pulseaudio 5.0-1
pulseaudio-alsa 2-2
When running a wine application sound works, unless a linux application is playing sound. If that is the case, no sound is playing from the wine app until sound from the linux application stops (for example by pausing smplayer).
Is there any way to make sound work simultaneously from wine and native applications?
Other information that may be relevant:
Architecture - x86_64
Desktop - KDE
Wine application - BabasChess

Re: [SOLVED] Playing sound simultaniously from wine and other applications
Install lib32-alsa-plugins (contains the necessary alsa plugin to redirect alsa programs to pulse) and set wine to use the default resp (System Standard) card in winecfg.
pulsemixers should show an [alsa-plugin] wine stream

This might be a silly question. What is pulsemixers?

A made up word for any mixer with pulse support e.g. pavucontrol, gnomes sound menu, kmix whatever, didn't know what he was using, but the mentioned entry would be missing if wine wasn't using pulse
