plain terminal output

The game becomes unresponsive when sounds are enabled and Alsa is set to full
hw. acceleration (default).
The easiest way to reproduce the issue in the demo by choosing <Credits> from
the main menu then click on <Close>. Another occurrence of the problem is when
you try to create a new game: the game hangs after you've entered the name of
your ship and commander.

Workaround: Alsa with 'emulation' mode.

Note #1 (when testing): in-game music must be disabled otherwise the game hits
bug #2748.
Note #2: if you encounter mostly black screen after starting the game you need
to change ORM to backbuffer.

To reproduce the problem in the demo:
1) Install the demo as usual.
2) Launch the demo by StarFury.exe the first time: this will create the
corresponding registry entry for the game. Quit the launcher and fire up
regedit. Look for the key under HKCU/Software/Malfador Machinations/Star Fury.
Change the value of 'Play Music' from true to false.
3) Launch the demo again (now with disabled music). In the main menu select
<Credits>. When you've seen enough of it click on <Close>: the game will hang.

The problem didn't occur in Wine-1.3.16:

    Revert "winmm: Fix PlaySound so it doesn't block when another sound is
already playing.".

    This reverts commit f44bc89bc41b2b8d75eeb4fc02f5aa587d84c13c.
    Let the player thread call waveOutReset itself instead.
