           Summary: Ubuntu 6.06 Cataclysm - sound loop makes mouse erratic
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.9.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-programs
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: bjchip at computer.org


Tried various combinations of sound and video settings but nothing yet works. 
On startup and menu presentation the mouse and audio are perfect, the sound
track runs nicely, the mouse is smooth.  This is in menus OR in the game.  

After the sound loop has been played it stutters and restarts from the
beginning. The mouse then becomes erratic and unresponsive.  

Interrupts are being missed, the sound system is taking priority over the mouse
and appears to be loading/reloading tiny chunks of sound in some unnecessary
manner.  I tried knocking back the sound quality to no effect.  This appears
whether sound is in emulation or hardware assisted.  It happens at all
resolution settings, and with safegl.   

Since the game played normally during previous sessions I believe that this is
something that is environment related.  Some other program changed some aspect
of the sound system and it is not being reset/controlled to put it back as it
needs to be?  It is currently unplayable (again).        

Notable changes.  Powered down overnight.  Installed Skype (no, I was NOT on the
phone :-) ... I am examining the system in more detail.  If I can persuade it to
boot the W98 version I may have better luck.  W98 does not find the CD even when
 it is explicitly identified.
