On the 32-bit distro, I was able to get output to Jack when using the 
ALSA option in winecfg. I'm not sure why it works that way, but...

Just listened to it :-)

I tried the 1.44 donationware version, I haven't tried the 1.16 LGPL 
version yet. Apparently the bug fixes are backported to the tree of this 
last open source version, so it should work just as well (in theory).

We write it with the space, like: 64 Studio

Cheers!
