Stef... I'm just a wine user, I'm not a developer or affiliated with Ubuntu, and I also now have problems with no sound on programs running under wine.
But wine is known not to work well with pulseaudio, and I was wondering if you had tried the following and, if so, what your experience was.

in terminal:
sudo nano /etc/pulse/client.conf
uncomment "autospawn = yes" and change yes to no
reboot
in terminal:
killall pulseaudio
winecfg
set audio driver to OSS only.
Look under alsa and oss and see if each recognizes mixers. If so, is yours listed?
Then try your program and see if it works.

Even without pulseaudio, alsa does not work for me right now, or it works badly. OSS works some of the time. I just thought that, if your program does work with this set of instructions, that is useful information.
