Installing Scratch on Ubuntu 12 (Precise)

So I've downloaded the package, installed it, then tried running it. It didn't work. So I tried running it from the terminal and got this error:

Code:

magnie@ubuntu:~$ scratch
could not find module vm-sound-pulse
Aborted (core dumped)

Any ideas on how to lead Scratch to the sound module? Info about my computer: Ubuntu 12 64bit (installing on an originally Windows 7 32bit netbook, don't ask) with 2GB RAM 1.66 Ghz CPU.

Well it doesn't work on 64 bit. I just use the Windows version with Wine on my 64-bit Lubuntu 12.04 installation.

Hmm, okay.

I did some hackering (lol, tinkering) and I think the entire VM is missing from the installation. So I don't know.
