The solution is EXACTLY what Ulrich Keller wrote in the 2nd comment, in March.

    winealsa: Use "default" as the default card name instead of "default:0".

Revert this and the issue is resolved.

The issue is NOT about "no ALSA suppose since <blah>". It is about alsa driver
displaying the names of the sound device during enumeration as dmix:0 multiple
times. With the reversion of the above patch, for some reason not quite clear
to me, the two sound devices are listed as dmix:0 for the first one, and dmix:1
for the second. This allows for device selection once again.


*AGAIN*, the problem is sound device *selection*. And there is sound always.
For people complaining there is no sound, they should check the "other" sound
device that is listed under same name. The sound is most likely routed there
(there may be 2+ logical sound devices with one physical one, for example)
