Rocksmith

What works

Everything as far as I noticed, once you get it running. Audio gives some trouble and your graphics driver may limit success.

There are at least 2 configurations that work (on a distro with pulseaudio):

1. Use pulseaudio for everything. This is bad because of the audio latency. Also your guitar cable detection is somewhat random and the capture crackles quite easily with increasing CPU load, causing note detection to fail.

2. Use wine ALSA driver for audio and pulseaudio driver for ALSA output.  I did not have to switch off the Rocksmith cable from pulseaudio manager. 

Audio latency was ok on my systems.

What does not

Needs a lot of CPU power, or audio starts crackling.

With the nouveau graphics driver the game failed after the startup screens. With nvidia binary driver, looks flawless. 

With Wine forced to use ALSA driver audio works, with WINE pulseaudio driver does not.
