The forum

OK.  A friend I nagged into getting into linux got me off my duff to figure this one out, and I am almost done.

 

Pulseaudio and wine do not play well together as we all know.  So for some time I figured out that all my issues can be resolved with a change in the /etc/pulse/daemon.conf and a variable for wine.  The former is easy, the latter is where I need a hand.

 

The parameter at hand is used as follows:

export PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60
playonlinux

Now what I have been doing is just running a shell script to keep this working.  My friends however are not that tech saavy.  Is there a place from within PoL to plop this in to make it take effect?  Doing this for each bottle is kosher.

 

Thanks

Andrew.

I have heard so much bad about pulse and wine, but I have never had any issues. I even run jack and wineasio through pulse and have no issues. 

You can prefix commands to execute before running the program. Look in the Configure menu, in either the general or misc tab. There is a field that appears when you highlight your game in that field where you can enter commands.

OK, I found what You Were talking about, and Added in the stuff and it worked great!

Thanks a bunch!

No problem. 

This works for my headphone issues :-)

yes for JACK+Pulse

though i never had issues with pulse since 2008 as well

Yup. Same here. I have never, ever had any issues with Pulse since I started using Linux. Not through Wine, not in practice, not ever. I actually really like Pulse. I don't see where issues start happening. Maybe it is with specific sound cards? Idunno.
