Hello folks,

it seems the app uses 'PortAudio', some portable cross-platform audio i/o
library -> http://portaudio.com/download.html

The failing part is likely related to WASAPI API.

Although Wine has some insufficiencies on its own, the library itself has some
bugs (mainly using uninitialized stack memory on error paths).
One doesn't even need the sources to see that.

Also one of the audio APIs being probed, that is WDM-KS host API can't work
with Wine as of now (shadowed by another library bug).

Except for making Wine better ... why the Windows version?
There is a native port of WSJT-X available on Linux.

Regards
