Just tested - (Wine 3.15 + dxvk master). I didn't notice any change in sound. I have a more powerful CPU though. It's possible your PulseAudio is CPU starved which usually can cause clipping.

@Arehandoro OpenAL got updated on Arch recently, and it's completely broken. Just downgrade openal and lib32-openal to the previous version and you should be fine.

I see that Arch is using openal 1.19.0, and Debian testing / unstable is still on libopenal1 1.18.2. Is it a bug in OpenAL 1.19 or something is wrong particularly with Arch build of it?

Thanks for the bug hunt :)

It should be fixed in the master. So watch out for 1.19.0, but 1.19.1 should be OK.

Good news, thanks!

So, transform feedback is finally available in Vulkan now!

To use it with Mesa you still need to apply some patches manually though, since they didn't yet land in Mesa master.
