The version of OpenAL shipped in Lucid appears to be causing regressions in other apps. MPlayer, for instance, has encountered a very similar bug to what Wine developers were noting: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openal-soft/+bug/575368

To fix this, I propose an SRU of the new minor version originally proposed here. Backporting portions of the code (for instance just the pulseaudio driver) is an option, however depending on how well we understand the underlying OpenAL code this may be more or less risky.
