This is still present in wine 2.8.

Notably, the crackling does not occur during the startup movie's audio (with
the Bethesda logo). It only begins at the main menu's background music.

Moreover, this behavior can be triggered while Wine is already running, as long
as the Skyrim process hasn't been started yet. That is, starting Steam with
Wine set to Windows XP, then changing to Windows 7, then launching Skyrim is
enough to cause audio crackling/distortions. Moreover, if one exits Skyrim
(leaving Steam, and thus Wine, still running), sets Wine back to XP, then
relaunches Skyrim, the audio crackling is gone.
