I managed to get the GoG version working with sound (even in the cinematics).

I'm running Wine 1.7.43. I installed with Playonlinux as a "non-listed program".

I installed on a new virtual drive, and chose the defaults for everything.

After the install finished, I repeated the process to apply the 2.0.1.19 patch to the virtual drive I just created.

As-in, Alan Wake wouldn't run. So in PlayOnLinux I selected "configure".

I set the Wine version to "System" (the version I'm running above, 1.7.43).

The I chose "Configure Wine" and set the Windows version as "Windows 7".

Next I chose "Install components" and chose "dxfullsetup".

Once that finished I went back to the Wine tab and clicked "Windows reboot" and "Kill processes".

Now once I clicked "Run" for Alan Wake, boom! Full functionality. Use WSAD instead of the arrow keys but otherwise it's all good.

From WineHQ and other threads I initially tried various other steps, installed d3dx9, dsound, xact, etc. Through various trial and error I got the game running but with no cinematic sound. Doing the above process was the only way that I ended up with full functionality.

I have a ThinkPad T430 with a NVIDIA Geforce NVS 5400m and Core i7 processor. With the Intel graphics the game is playable but choppy. Using Bumblebee to run PlayOnLinux with Primus, the game is very smooth.

The link for downloading vcredist_x64.exe and vcredist_x86.exe seems to be broken, therefore that part of the installation always fail

I've installed Alan Wake on my Ubuntu desktop using POL and it runs fine, except that there is no in-game sound. The cinematics have sound, as does the opening splash page until the "press any key..." message. After pressing a key and going to the main menu all sound stops. If I start a new game the sound for the opening movie plays, but then once the first chapter starts all the sound is gone again.

I am using Alan Wake off a DVD, installed with the POL script, running in Wine through Steam, installed off the DVD rather than downloaded.

I'm using POL V. 4.2.2, downloaded from the repository. Ubuntu 14.04, with a NVIDIA graphics card (if that matters). Per the POL script for installing, it is using wine 1.5.0-raw3.

Everything runs fine, good framerate, keyboard and mouse work, but no audio in-game (but it is there in cinematics).

Thanks for any help.
