Current winetricks should automatically create that symlink:
regsvr32: Successfully registered DLL 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Speech SDK 5.1\Bin\SREng.dll' Executing ln -s /home/hazel/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/Speech/sapi.dll /home/hazel/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/system32/Speech/Common Using native override for following DLLs: sapi
I tried copying sapi.dll and all the other files under
./drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Microsoft Shared/Speech
to
./drive_c/windows/system32/Speech/Common
but the error log generated was essentially the same (The error log was made using WINEDEBUG=+module,+file,+sapi,+pid,+reg,+ole)
