Leaving two bugs open for the same problem doesn't make sense, hence the closed
DUP.

I personally think Pulseaudio does it the wrong way, but whatever. It's there
and people are using it.

What we DON'T need on this bug are more posts saying "Pulseaudio is awesome for
these reasons". It's a waste of time, energy, space and emails. No matter how
awesome it is for whoever, support won't magically appear without patches.

Sure, there are the winepulse driver patches here, but consensus of established
devs seems to be that it's the wrong way to go about it, and that the existing
winealsa code should be made more Pulse-friendly. For anyone new to this
thread, *that* is what is meant by the "Wine should support PulseAudio"
summary. Only once that has been proven impossible should a winepulse driver be
considered.
