having the emul-linux installed on a multilib amd64 system is always a good
idea. i have them all installed and everything works fine.
i don't have alsa-plugins installed and everything seems to work fine on my
system. wine's apps have sound enabled, so think that there aren't problems
running a system without it. try emerging it and see what happens. it should
use the 64bit plugins whenever possible.
