I completely agree with you that the driver is buggy. However, incorrect
patches don't improve anything. I'm not saying that you should stop doing
whatever you do, but don't just test random changes to the code. Instead, look
for a proper solution (if there is one): read the alsa API and ask the ALSA
developers. They know their API best and will be able to tell you whether it's
possible to do what the winealsa driver needs to do.

That is an entirely different issue. Feel free to open a new bug if there isn't
already.
