[SOLVED] No sound in wine (ALSA / dmix)

Hi!

Getting no sound in (most likely) everything run trough wine.

When run, winecfg says (this might be unrelated though?):

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:957:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) The dmix plugin supports only playback stream
err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"wineesd.drv": libesd.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
err:alsa:wine_snd_pcm_recover underrun occurred

The winecfg Test-Button plays sound though. No matter what sound device is selected (even all deactivated) - every time I press the Button, I get to hear the Test-Sound + another one of these lenes in terminal...:

err:alsa:wine_snd_pcm_recover underrun occurred

Running bin32_wine on arch 64, using ALSA, should be configured correctly (dmix sound works everywhere at once, even flash & multiple users). Anyone an idea where to start looking?

Thanks!

You need the *32-bit* version of that library file.

Re: [SOLVED] No sound in wine (ALSA / dmix)

Thanks, but I'm not using ESD, I guess this was really unrelated.

Turned out what's also unrelated are the "test sound" button working in winecfg audio tab and if the configuration there is actually really supposed to be working: after deactivating everything except for ALSA and turning off hardware acceleration too, I suddenly had sound from programs running under wine, too.
