I'm unsure as well, and given the fact that my gdm bug report is still listed as UNCONFIRMED after 4+ months, so I'm not too motivated/encouraged at this point to perform the legwork necessary to report this issue everywhere. It also doesn't do a single thing to prevent future developers from

Thanks for the update, Stefan. I dug some links out of the repos in case anyone is interested: Looks like a winepulse driver was added to Maarten's unstable audio changes fork of the Wine source ( http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/multimedia.git/commit/ee9bf8dfd43ce818d4f5ac48b08bde5e3031f945 ).

(In reply to comment #314) I'm no expert, but here's what I know. In ubuntu, the standard way to not have pulseaudio is to disable it among the start menu options, and then edit /etc/pulse/client.conf so that autospawn is uncommented and changed to no. Wine uses the default soundcard, so

I see no such drop-down in the version of Unity included with Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty). As far as I know, the only way to see applications grouped by meaningful categories may be to right-click the Applications dash button (I've not been able to test this yet). Bug #762926 discusses the same issue I
