latest wine git: wine-1.1.30-168-g3fe20bd
latest openal soft: openal-soft-1.9.563
clean wine prefix
clean home directory (i.e. rm -rf My\ Games Bioshock BioWare)

Bioshock starts up now.
UT3 hangs when launching if set to "Hardware OpenAL", otherwise no sound.
Frontlines: Fuel of War behaves exactly as UT3.
Mass Effect hangs on startup as well.

Cheese and crackers! This is driving me up the wall. I finally get the
libopenal dependency resolved, now this. I know that my openal build is
working. I tested it with mplayer. Sound's fine.

Chris, this probably isn't the forum for this, but just a heads up - you MUST
explicitly set alsa in the drivers section of /etc/openal/alsoft.conf or a
system may default to OSS first.

Are there going to be many more of these new external dependencies introduced
anytime soon. I need time to regrow my hair, so I can tear it all out again.
;-)
