Indeed. Wine is Linux software, ALSA is Linux software, and your kernel
is Linux. I don't believe in limiting my options on principle when my
essential work is at stake.

As it happens, after trying various options under Wine I find that I can
achieve my goals with free & open-source software under Linux. Someone
else's mileage will certainly vary as their goals differ from mine.

When tools like Wine are available it seems foolish to not use them,
especially if they make your creative work possible.

Best,
