           Summary: Use alsa card name instead ID
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux

          Priority: P2

Hello dear Wine community,

I wanted to point out that in audio devices, you use the "name" instead of
"ID".
It seems that this is a non-priority bug but has existed since the beginning of
the project.

Indeed, it is well specified by the community of alsa that the unique OS name
of the sound cards is "ID".(Do not confuse with index)

The "name" flag is used to define the manufacturer name of the card. This entry
is therefore not unique.

When we have the same sound card several times or if have used loopback alsa,
we find nothing when you search your device in wine...

If you could fix this in a near release this to be really ideal.

Thanks in advance.

Good continuation for this very good project that I follow a long time.
