Do you know WHY that is? It's because 90% of the comments on this thread are people saying "Pulse is used by Ubuntu and Fedora. We NEED a pulse driver." Never mind the technical details of what's actually going on at the moment with the sound subsystem (i.e., the change from winmm to mmdevapi); new commenters people keep using the ad populum fallacy. And it REALLY annoys me when they do.

Feel free, but don't expect any help when things go wrong. winepulse is still an out-of-tree patch and will not be supported by WineHQ.
