Audio-Issues using Lutris/Wine

i've come a cross a problem with my Audio somehow. Example: iam currently in a teamspeak3 session but when i now start a game with Lutris/Wine my audio from teamspeak seems to be dead. i have to restart teamspeak to have it work again.

Same goes for Steam's voice, if i start Steam before a lutris-launch my steam loses all headset/microphone capability until i restart it.

Also my sound becomes choppy after 1-2 hours of game play (Path of Exile via Lutris for example) until i toggle the pulseaudio/alsa one time - but that might be another question/problem.

System:

  • Ubuntu 18.04
  • no special sound setup done after installing
  • using a usb-connected headset (Teufel-CAGE)
  • Alsa with PulseAudio in use

I have found the solution for the destroyed audio in running programs.

Lutris has a "reset PulseAudio" option under System-Configuration which seems to be the culprit.

I hope this helps someone else using lutris + any voice programs in background

Try to open /etc/pulse/default.pa and find the line containing load-module module-udev-detect then add add tsched=0

Your new line should look like:

load-module module-udev-detect tsched=0
