    are you saying those test sounds in winecfg, you can not hear them?

    how then can your games play sound?

    That is the problem no sound in games or netflix. I came here from a failed bing and google searches for a fix. Torchlight 1 and 2 and Trine 2 play great but no sound.

    Re: Netflix On Ubuntu

    I also don't get sound. I have sound in my normal Wine prefix, but not the Netflix one.

    Specifically, when I open up winecfg and swap to the audio tab, I see:

    Code:
    ALSA lib conf.c:3314:(snd_config_hooks_call) Cannot open shared library libasound_module_conf_pulse.so
    ALSA lib pcm.c:2217:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
    ALSA lib pcm_dsnoop.c:612:(snd_pcm_dsnoop_open) unable to open slave
    It seems to be due to running a 32-bit Wine inside a 64-bit Ubuntu, see:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...bs/+bug/408615
    And in gentoo:
    http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t...6-start-0.html

    HOWEVER, there's an easy easy fix.

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install libasound2-plugins:i386
    seemed to do the trick.

    Mine has HDA in front of the options for sound output and input. No ALSA or Pulseaudio.

    Re: Netflix On Ubuntu

    I got stuck in the netflix app today. Mouse is working in the app, except can not x out of the program or do the upper left corner with gnome3.
    So I could not close the app.

    When it was stuck like this I tried alt-F2, this exposed the basic firefox menu. Then under file select exit and it closed.

    You can try this. Someone in the wine forums had issues with sound speed and this helped.

    Could you please create a new bug for the 64-bit failure and put a dependency
    on this bug?

    I've not noticed this particular issue, but when I do (rarely) notice audio
    issues with Wine I've noticed that they can be resolved by executing
    "pulseaudio -k". You might give that a try.

    Use Alt+F4 to close it. AFAIK there is no way to use the close/minimize/maximize buttons.

    I can see it needs to become more user friendly. Someone who does not know much about computers might use this app and when they cant exit will get ornery and pull the plug.
