Hi
I've been using Spotify with Ubuntu Linux and Wine. It's been OK.
But now I've updated to Karmic Koala and got lots of trouble.
Distorted sound and 100% cpu use etc.

The solution is to upgrade Wine to a later version from the winehq.org website.
The one in Ubuntu's repo is still v1.0.1 and the deb that I got from winehq is v1.1.31.
I've also installed oss-compat and changed wine's audio driver to OSS Driver.

Everything's all right now.
