--- Comment #399 from Michael Gooch <mgooch at kotoro.com> ---
Predictions made by ma at jgs-wg.de (Martin Jürgens ) on "2007-11-18 13:13:06 CST"
are basically already true today. Many distros have switched to using pulse
audio as their default-shipped audio system, and many things have audio issues
on these distros when run in wine, DESPITE  the distros patching in winepulse
support (that outside devs had to create because wine devs couldn't be
bothered).

The reality of the situation is that pulse is not completely back-compatible to
alsa,and this creates problems that could potentially be avoided by wine. It
might be pulseaudio's fault, but defining where blame lies isn't important, a
functional application that doesn't require extensive user intervention IS. You
guys really ought to get on top of this sooner rather than later.
