Seems as if this is an issue for other games as well, so something seems
definitely broken in 1.5.x (probably starting, as I said before, with 1.5.8). I
tried out the game "Syberia" via Steam as well. And while V1.4.1 of Wine
produces sound and a black screen only (game unplayable), with Wine V1.5.10, I
get these error messages:

"DirectX Sound Engine Initialization Failed"

and

"Your sound card is not available or it is nonexistent. Make sure your sound
card is not in use by another application before running Syberia."

Also, I get a Windows-style message about the app encountering a serious
problem and needing to close after those two messages.
