Hello Eric,

you didn't mention that you use the GOG.com version of DK II...

There is a rather large thread at GOG.com forums regarding various stability
issues of the game with Windows (not only DX/gfx related).

www.gog.com/forum/dungeon_keeper_series/dungeon_keeper_2_stability_issues/

So I wonder if some issues can be attributed to the original crappy/buggy game
code and Wine is not to blame here.
There are many complaints about the overall 'quality' of this game even with
the non-GOG (original) version up to patch v1.7

GOG doesn't have access the source code/game engine.
It gets the game with the DRM already removed from the publisher and
repackages/wraps it again.
In this case it's SafeDisc 1.x that was removed although Wine supports it with
"Windows 2000" mode (limitation of original SafeDisc drivers).

You might try to play/test this game with real Windows (XP/7) and check if
exhibits the same issues which would make this bug invalid.

Regards
