I created a new 32-bit wine prefix this morning, set the Windows version to 10 (sorry) and installed Dragon NaturallySpeaking 13.0 into it.
DNS 13.0 should also work with Windows 7 & 8; does the problem also exist with those versions?
Debian LXDE with all updates. wine-1.7.55 (Staging)
That's several versions out of date. Please retest with 1.8-rc3, preferably with the development branch to rule out this being a staging-specific issue.
