[Wine] Re: Sound issue with either WINE or World of Warcraft...

[lupusnoctu]

After hours of extensive research, I found this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8512509

I tried it, still haven't had much luck, so now I'm further documenting my attempts at both forums.

Leaving the front/rear-left/right alone, but swapping center/lfe to lfe/center produced the proper change... I was thinking that maybe either WINE or WoW was thinking lfe was rear-center, but they're not, so that's good. I put it back to center/lfe.

Coming out of the center, I heard what was behind me, and LFE was producing lf sound from all directions, as it should. This made me think that maybe WoW thinks there is a rear-center and front-center, and has the two swapped.
