           Summary: Team Fortress 2 launched from within steam loads, but
                    crashes when launching any map
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.13
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P1
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: zacharyjwelch at gmail.com


fully updated: Linux hostname 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 21:57:00 UTC

Downloaded latest version of Steam YESTERDAY (1/19/09) from
www.steampowered.com and used it to download and update the latest release of
TF2 from my orangebox purchase.

The game launches from steam properly (after some tweaking) and i can see all
the main menu options, click and do.

However, when i "find servers" and choose a server to connect to, after I get
the familiar loading screen as all content is downloaded locally for the
server, it gets about 2/3 done loading and crashes. (TF2 not steam) with a pop
up error window saying:

Engine Error

CAudioSourceMemWave (****\***********.wav); GetDataPointer() failed.

where *\*.wav is any random directory and _.wav depending on which map is
trying to load. I tried it about 6 times and each time it was a different file
in a different location. The files are present in those locations however.

Also, after clicking "OK" on the error, clicking on my gnome system bar makes
it disappear, flash, both or crash the PC. depends how he gods of wine feel
that day.

I was unable to "Disable audio" in any manor that solved this.

I did add the following "registry" entires after the initial install per the
following thread:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=587780

and I reduced all the graphical options to minimum per suggestions in
debugging. This looks very much like a sound issue, so here's my sound config:

$sudo lspci|grep audio
05:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Audigy (rev 04)

In my wineconf I have ALSA and OSS active and seem to have no other problem
with other applications (have WoW, Digsby, Ventrilo installed currently) except
some mic issues with vent.

Since steam is loaded from an icon in my wine menu that I added there is no
command window ouput. And at the moment I cant do anything else because my PC
is crashing as a result of all this....(which is why I chose "critical" status)

To be continued....
