This bug affects every game from the developer Sonalysts:
Jane's 688(I) Hunter-Killer
Fleet Command
Sub Command
Dangerous Waters

Symptom: all these games are missing sound effects and voices (only music
works). The games store their sound files (.wav) in a Sfx.agg archive. Running
the games in Wine with winedebug=+file reveals that Wine cannot find the
appropriate sound files. A typical line from the log:

warn:file:OpenFile (C:\Program Files\Sonalysts Combat Simulations\Dangerous
Waters Demo\Audio\Sfx\sfx.agg+pinged.wav): return = HFILE_ERROR error= 2

Notice the path to the relevant sound file: '\sfx.agg+pinged.wav'. 

Apparently in a native Windows environment it doesn't cause problems, but does
in Wine.

A 'dirty' workaround is to extract the .wavs using an utility called agg.exe,
and placing them into a directory named: sfx.agg+.

You can test the issue using the demo of Dangerous Waters, link added to URL.
