Comment 419 for bug 371897

I'm no expert, but here's what I know.
In ubuntu, the standard way to not have pulseaudio is to disable it among the start menu options, and then edit
/etc/pulse/client.conf
so that "autospawn" is uncommented and changed to "no."

Wine uses the default soundcard, so changing the default soundcard should use a little script in the user's file called .asoundrc

which should have as its text something that points to whatever soundcard you want to use. The following is a sample script that points away from the onboard card (which is 0) and to the installed pc card, which is technically card #1, at least on my machine.

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}

I realize that this is all useless for someone still trying to make pulseaudio work with wine, even using pasdp.
