[Bug 437749] Re: Ubuntu should ship wine with the wine-pulse patches

[Ernst]

I totally agree with this request. In my case, I want to run foobar2000
on Karmic; with the default version of Ubuntu, it is only possible with
dirty hacks (start all wine programs with padsp and kill all other music
players). This patch (there is actually a new configure patch: version
0.32) supports pulseaudio and makes foobar2000 work correctly out of the
box and it plays nicely along other music players.

The patch is supported actively by the developer. Furthermore, wine
developers don't want to include the patch because pulse audio is wrong
by design: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10495. It looks like
the developers do not care at all that the audio part of wine is
unusable in distributions who ship pulseaudio. However, without this
patch, wine is unusable for audio programs.

Thus, I would highly appreciate the inclusion of this patch.
