Ad Astra is a freeware space exploration game. On startup the game shows a
black screen for a moment, then it quits (without a crash dialog/backtrace).

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. unpack the archive and start the game with AdAstraDX9.exe.

According to my testing, the problem appeared in Wine 1.5.1, and is still
present in 1.5.14.
The result of the regression test:

Reverting the patch on 1.5.14 fixes the startup problem.

The game uses midi files for background music, some midi files are located in
the /midi directory.
Running Timidity before starting the game doesn't help.
As a workaround for the startup problem, either remove those midi files or
install native directmusic via winetricks.
Let me know if you need a debug log (+dmloader,...)
