Recently, I was able to pair my Bluetooth headphones thanks to virtual_oss. It
works great for most programs, but Wine apps continue to use my laptop
speakers.

When I go to the Audio tab in winecfg, my virtual audio device doesn't get
listed among the available devices.

I first filed a bug for audio/virtual_oss and Hans Petter Selasky (the port
maintainer) said that probably the OSS backend in Wine needed to be patched.
Other option he suggested was to give Wine some parameter to override the audio
device.
