USB Headset doesn't work in games

[sqrlking]

Hi,

My headset works fine when I play music via rhythmbox, but i installed steam (via wine) and ETQW, and neither of them recognize the usb headset. I don't have speakers, so this is my only option for sound.

in system>pref>sound I've selected USB audio for everything.

I tried following a couple of the sounds guides, but no help so far. Here's some more info on my system.

cat /proc/bus/input/devices:

And asoundconf list:
Names of available sound cards:
NVidia
default


As you can see, no headset shows up in asoundconf.

Appreciate all help.

Thanks!

Anybody have this trouble? or have a working usb headset, so they can share their settings with me?

Headset is gigaware, if that makes any difference

final bump. Any help?

I'm having a similar problem however i'm using a Bluetooth headset. Works great for music with Amarok but the problem in wine lies in selecting the default alsa device. Does anyone know how to tell wine to use a secondary device as the default sound card?
