There's no need to reinstall your whole OS just to fix a problem with Wine. Reinstalling Wine alone usually won't help, either,  because it doesn't remove ~/.wine, which is what usually needs to be done.

When you reinstalled your OS, did you also remember to install libmpg123? That's not part of the default install for most distros. Have you set up sound in winecfg? Does the sound test work?

First, make sure there are no zombie processes still running in the background before you start up WMP9.  

Second, cd to the program directory before running it, and use only the program filename in the command:

Code:
cd "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Windows Media Player"
wine wmplayer.exe
