This is actually how this dmusic implementation behaves on Windows 7, as well.
It's basically identical to its behavior in Wine. So /that/ isn't a bug.

The dmusic implementation that ships with Windows 7 plays this game correctly.

If someone manages to find a downloadable dmusic implementation that works
better in Wine, they should let the winetricks guys know about it.

Wine's dmusic implementation should support this game, but it's largely just
stubs at the moment. So, check back in after we get around to implementing more
of dmusic.

Although, I'm still interested to hear the answer to this.
