Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Game starts and works with some stuttering, presumably because of the textures that are loading in. Goes away after a while. The sound crackling is AFAIK a common problem with wine.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Start the game
  2. Load into a save
  3. Every sound crackles, including menu music

Steps to fix this issue:

I don't know how you would fix it for every system, but I fixed it for other games, for example StarCraft via these commands:

alias wine='PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 wine' or export PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60
