    Question [SOLVED] Weird sound tick in game World of Warcraft

    Hello,
    I am running the latest Ubuntu on my HP Paviljon Slimline PC with AMD Phenom 9750 Quadcore Processor and 4GiB Ram (2.4Ghrz).

    Have Nvidia GT120 Card and have checked info with " lspci | grep -i audio " on Terminal.
    Which gives this output
    00:07.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP72XE/MCP72P/MCP78U/MCP78S High Definition Audio (rev a1)
    03:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23885 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 02)

    When i play Music or Video i have no problems at all.
    But.
    Have World of Warcraft installed trough Wine and all is working perfect. The thing is that i hear a weird chirping sound when i log in the game (1 time) and then i hear a sort of ticking sound on the background and it stays there no matter if a disable music or not.
    Have also tried all 3 settings in sound config (ingame) eg. System Default, Pulse Audio Software ((Null)) and ALSA Software on Default ((null)).

    The weird ticking sound is staying.

    Anyone knows a solution of have a hint where i must look to solve this ?
    Thanks

    Update

    Ok.. weird thing has happened.

    I loaded Wine config and the settings where on Vista (thats where i got the problems).. so i changed the settings to Windows 7 and started the Game again.. got a error and game crash..
    I rebooted PC and turned the settings in Wine config back from Windows 7 to Vista and started Game again..

    No clicking sounds anymore

    This is really weird due i had it on Vista settings in the 1th place.. now i putted back to Vista from Windows 7 and there is no problem anymore..
    Perhaps a minor bug somewhere.. nevertheless its ok now.. so i consider it solved

    ps.. Have Sound settings in game on System Default
