... I may have not been clear enough in my first post: With built-in quartz I do have background music in the menu when I start the game for a very short time. My best guess is that the sound stops as soon as the first 'sound effect' occurs (which would be the change of the slides sound if you know the Fallout 3 intro).
I have both F3 and F:NV, I actually do my primary testing on F3... Funny story actually, I had the audio fully working for F:NV for over a day before I ever launched it and found out. Anyway, this sounds a lot like the PulseAudio issue... What distro are you using? Are you sure you ran the correct version of Wine to get around the PulseAudio problem? It's worth noting that I haven't actually tested the reversion fix in a while, I just temporarily disable PulseAudio to do my testing.
Is there a way to output all the overrides? I don't really feel like typing out the 60-or-so overrides unless it's really necessary.
Yes: 1) Launch "regedit" 2) Surf to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DllOverrides" (click) 3) Go to the menu "Registry -> Export Registry File..." 4) Make sure the "Selected Branch" option is selected 5) Save the file somewhere convenient for uploading
