Launchpad
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-plugins/+bug/805940
mentions a custom package, presumably without the bug
http://people.canonical.com/~trellis/alsa/libasound2-plugins_1.0.22-0ubuntu6~tellis01_i386.deb
that seems to be for Ubuntu Lucid.

>it goes full sreen
You can either
- use ctrl-alt-F1 - F6 to switch to a text console, login and issue
speaker-test
speaker-test -Dpulse
speaker-test -Dplughw:0,0
or some other device
- ctrl-alt-right or left (in metacity/gnome) to switch to another screen,
depending on how the app went full screen.

You can also tell the app to open a virtual desktop and not get full screen.

>I can compile 1.3.25 and try it
Please do.  We appreciate precise findings & reports because not everybody
experiences the same issues.

Does winecfg's test sound button cause it to hang on your machine?

If you can't either upgrade PulseAudio/alsa_plugins or use another package
without the bug, I believe all that is left is to add Wine registry settings to
not use the default device and force winealsa to use a working one, e.g.
"plughw:0,0".

Drawback: exclusive access to HW implies no more mixing as long as Wine is
running.  Using "plug:dmix" might not be better because no other app on your
Ubuntu machine may still use dmix.
