no sound in WoW:Burning Crusade

Operating System: Fedora 8
Kernel Build: Linux 2.6.25.9-40.fc8 #1 SMP Fri Jun 27 16:25:53 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Sound System: Pulse Audio and Alsa

Once I updated to the newest kernel WoW stopped giving memory reservation error.
I updated to the latest unsupported crossover-games-demo-20080702 build and sound will not work.
Pulsevolume control shows the application there as ALSA plug-in [wine-preloader]: ALSA Playback but no sound

Wine and PulseAudio are not fully compatible yet.

see: http://www.codeweavers.com/support/wiki/faq/ubuntu804_knownbugs/

"There is no sound in my application running in Crossover.

Ubuntu 8.04 uses the PulseAudio backend, which isn't entirely compatible with Wine yet, and sometimes doesn't like Crossover. If you switch the OS back to using ALSA (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio) you should have audio restored to your Crossover apps."

switch from pulse to ALSA and you should have sound.
