Again another great contributione to the flameware. Do you have any idea what
Stefan was writing about? Maybe you should read his comment again.

This is not true. JACK ist the sound server of joice for low latency needs. It
does not claim to be a low latency solution. Pulse and JACK devs work on making
both sound servers working together nicely.

I don't know the Wine set-up in detail but AFAIK it is not your decision and
I'm very glad about that.

You simply don't know what Pulse is good for and cultivate your prejudice.

ALSA via Pulse does have a higher latency than a direct Pulse API. Thus you
demand a "definite, demonstrated need" on one side but claim that latency is
the highest priority on the other side.
