New question #79211 on Ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/79211

Hello all.  For those that do not know already, finale is a wonderful, excellent, and to me a very important music program that opens .mus sheet music and plays them all the while showing the progress of the song and where the song is playing at in the sheet music at every point in time. 

I installed it on the wine emulator, and it works to a degree, but the only problem is that there is no sound playing while I play the musical piece. I did some research and I think it might be due to there not being an alsa driver installed for wine OR it is not configured.

I would like to know how to configure it and get it to work so that finale works. Complete, thorough, step-by-step, easy to understand, and simple instructions would be excellent.

Here is my reference where it says you need winealsa driver installed: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/makemusic-finale-2003-under-wine-573064/

It would be very kind of you to tell me how to fix this. I am tired of windows vista now. I use that for finale. Linux seems better in so many ways. 

Thank you. I hope to find out this problem someday because a person said he got it working on one of the linux forums(I think the same as the link). I will try to answer and comment back if anyone asks questions or has suggestions I should try out.  Of course I can not answer everyone, but I will resolve this question when appropriate. 

Sincerely yours,
Ki Lee
