Here's what I do.
Pulseaudio takes a bit of disabling. Make sure that
/etc/pulse/client.conf
has autospawn uncommented and set to no
(without the uncomment, it defaults to yes)
apt-get install alsa-oss
Then run winecfg
set audio to OSS only. (You'll really be getting alsa-oss emulation, I think.)
Wine does not control sound volume. That's set by alsa. You have to adjust settings using alsamixer. So you have to be using the default sound card.
(Note --I use an add-on card, so I have to set the default sound card the only way I know how, which is using asoundconf. But asoundconf is not offered in the latest alsa-utils, so I have to regress to Jaunty's version.)
That should work.
If it doesn't, check to see that pulseaudio is really disabled. Upon reboot, mine sneaks back in and I have to shut it off using System Monitor.
HTH -- I'm no expert.
