RE: fallout3 sound issues

First of all, thx a lot for posting this workaround, I'd been trying to get the sounds to work for a while without success... until now!
I run wine 1.1.40 under Debian Lenny x64. I copied the 1.1.37 version of winmm.dll from the .deb package to /usr/lib/wine/ as suggested. It solved the 2 main problems affecting gameplay 1) no sound except voices 2) after a while the framerate decreases and the game needs to be restarted (underrun error of some sort).
The game now works flawlessly with Alsa driver set to Full at 44100Hz,16 (if that matters).

Actually you can leave /usr/local/lib/wine/winmm.dll.so alone.
Just place the 1.1.37 winmm as winmm.dll inside Fallout 3 folder. I think you don't even need an override as the sound worked without needing to add such override.
