Why do I need to do this shell command to get pulseaudio to work properly?

Okay, I've been playing diablo 3 under wine recently. Every time I play the sound goes out after about 2 minutes, and I can't get sound from anything on my computer.

The fix for this is to put in my ~/.profile file and in the script that starts up diablo 3.

I think pulseaudio is pulling junk settings off of some global configuration file. I've been trying to google this, and all the files that I find are empty. What do I need to erase or do to not run this command every time I start diablo 3?

If I understand it correctly pulse* comes from PulseAudio and asound* from ALSA. Maybe you could remove one of it.
But then maybe some other sound might not work. If you have the rm in a script it's pretty much automated anyway ...
