Hi Andrew, I'd like to accommodate you and use the ALSA driver, but it doesn't
seem to be an option: for output device I can choose between "(System
default)", which seems to be the Pulse driver, and "Pulseaudio".

I did like you asked and downloaded idw_testsound.wav, and there isn't any
sound when PlaySound.exe plays it.  Aha!  What is it about that WAV file?  

The program that I'd like to run, which is called VE7CC, is supposed to monitor
a stream of internet data and notify the user by playing alert.wav when the
search criteria are met.  To muddy the waters a bit, VE7CC doesn't make any
sound when playing alert.wav, but PlaySound.exe does make sound when playing
the same WAV file.

I'll post the usual logs, except I'll use idw_testsound.wav so you can compare
apples to apples.

I'd be happy to try compiling Wine.  Maybe you could send me an email giving me
a rough outline of what to do.  I'm guessing I'll use apt-get to uninstall Wine
but not its dependencies, use Git to pull down the source, and then run "make"
and "make install".  This computer is just a netbook, so compiling will
probably take a long time, but it will be the computer's time and not mine.
