DirectSound, DeusEx and Wine

[motub at planet.nl]

Hello yet again.

My other problem is with Direct Sound. I put DeusEx in the title, but I
also have this problem with Icewind Dale I and II (and perhaps other
things I haven't yet tried to install or play).

Wine version: 20040112
Distribution: Mandrake 9.2
Sound card: onboard VIA 8233 using OSS drivers (since they actually work
under Mandrake and apps seem to like them better than ALSA)

Basically the deal is that the game starts fine. This time, I installed
DeusEx under Wine and am playing previous Windows installs of IWD 1 and
2, but it doesn't make a difference, as I've had this problem since way
back in September or so, and I've reinstalled all three games multiple
times various ways (either through Wine or under Windows).

The game (whichever one) starts fine, but I cannot even get out of any
menu screen (where I'm changing settings or choosing a save to load or
whatever) before the sound (music, usually) starts to loop. The game can
still be played "normally"-- no hang or problem with visuals or mouse or
anything-- but it's so annoying that I usually quit without playing (all
three games have good music and rely on speech to some extent, so
turning the sound off is an option, but not a good one). I can also quit
normally via the game's normal exit menu-- but the sound does not stop
when I close the game, or the terminal. 

As in my last post, the sound only stops when I kill the wine-pthreads
process in the System Monitor (I didn't know that last September-- I
just used to log out and back in).

Here's the log for DeusEx. I was also changing the resolution from
640x480 to 1280x1024 at the time, which also acted a bit odd, as you can
see (but then again, I didn't realize I had an unhandled exception
already when I did it)-- but you can also see that the sound errors
occurred well before that:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was hoping that the DirectMusic improvements in 20040121 would have
solved this for me, but apparently not.

Is there anything I can do?

Thanks in advance again,
