Hi list.
I'm having a few problems with getting wine to play nice with my sound card.
specifically I want to run a SIP phone using wine.
It works great using the OSS driver but then I can't play anything else. most
importantly I can't listen to music and wait for an incoming call at the same
time (it has to ring). I tried to use other sound drivers:
- ALSA: doesn't work at all, but even if it did it will be the same problem as
OSS - only one application can access the sound card at the same time.
- aRts: works ok, but only for output - the mic doesn't work. also the latency
is terrible, maybe even a second delay between the even and the sound. I
don't have the same delay with other aRts applications, and artsd is set to
about 200ms buffer.
- NAS: doesn't work although artsd and the nas utilities joyfully play and
record through it.
ultimatly I'd like to get the aRts driver to work as all my applications
currently use it. alternativly I'd either get it to work with NAS which arts
can play with or ALSA if I can get dmix to work (not much chance of that).
I'm using wine from 13/2/2004. I've read in the wine mailing list about
someone posting a patch to the arts driver that reduces latency and
introduces wave input, but that was in january so I fugred it should already
be in my version.
My sound card is an Analog Devices AD1885 and I'm using it with ALSA driver
snd-intel8x0 that came with kernel 2.6.3.
I'd be happy if anyone can provide some input regarding the status of wine's
sound drivers.
Thanks.
