We further propose a Foelner condition for compact quantum groups and prove it to be equivalent to coamenability. Using this Foelner condition, we prove that for a coamenable compact quantum group with tracial Haar state, the enveloping von Neumann algebra is dimension flat over the Hopf algebra of matrix coefficients. This generalizes a theorem of Lueck from the group case to the quantum group case, and provides examples of compact quantum groups with vanishing L^2-Betti numbers.Mistake in the proof of Theorem 6.1 is corrected.
