Definately a sound issue. I would mark it duplicate of 1631 because of other
similar reports I have gotten on blizzard games (seen below). Although that bug
report is becoming a mess. Also, there may be two issues going on anyway. I'm
going to rename this bug "Blizzard Games give unhandled exception with ALSA driver"

Well, it turns out to be a sound issue (as I suspected) For other appliction I
set the default sound driver to OSS instead of ALSA (I had both enabled,
actually), enabled ALSA and bam! crash within 1hr. of gameplay... Use OSS, and
no crashe. What I DID notice, though, were a LOT of buffer underruns. To be
precise messages like this:

err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x7fe756f8

Quite a bit of them (I'm not surprised, actually). Is there a way to make the
buffer bigger only for Wine?"
