well, from a generic point of view this is something to be done
however, I don't see where you'd like to dispatch the event to ?
the playback thread in this case would have to wait on two different things:
- the /dev/dsp fd (when the queue becomes non full)
- the external events (play/pause/stop/quit)
so you have to decide whether you use unix or Windows sync mechanisms here. unix would be more effective, but a bit harder to do. Windows would be nice (you just need to call the wine server request to create from a unix fd into a windows handle and wait on it.
