I noticed it is only possible to set the wine sound driver as a default setting, so for all apps at once. This means I have to select the appropriate sound driver which goes with a certain application. This is frustrating, and hard to explain to my wife and children  :?

It's not (currently) possible to separate them out. If it's possible
at all, I don't know...I've been told it's not, but I don't know the
sound architechure that well.

You can setup two WINEPREFIX's to do that...
