That may be the case, but I don't think it would cause every application trying
to play a sound to hang like that.  The symptoms you describe are the same as
when any program tries to access the sound hardware and it is already taken by a
sound server, or by some other program.

If you can try this instead of the last test, we can know for sure if it is a
problem with wine or with a sound server.

Take any sound player that is known to work well with wine (I think winamp
does), and try to play 1 song.  If winamp hangs (especially toward the first
couple of seconds of the song), then there is a sound server running. 
Otherwise, it is a bug in wine..

The reason this is a good test is because there can only be 1 song playing at a
time (unless you try to run multiple copies), and so the hardware cant be in use
by any other sound (at least not from wine).
