The patch didn't resolve the problem on my system. The stuttering issue as well
as the complete loss of audio is still there in HoverAce, after your patch
applied.

One more thing worth mentioning: the occurrence of the problem seems to depend
on the optimization level used when compiling Wine from source. With CFLAGS=-O0
the problem is reproducible right after starting a race. Using -O2, the bug
usually kicks in much later: I was able to play the game without the problem
for 5-10 minutes when -O2 was used.
