Bug ID: 51775
           Summary: Axiom Verge 2 crashes on startup due to incomplete
                    sapi implementation
           Product: Wine
           Version: 6.17
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: sapi
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

This game initializes sapi, even though it doesn't appear to use it at all.

It appears from the .NET backtrace, that
speechsynthesizer.SetOutputTotDefaultAudioDevice is at fault.

After playing around, we can reproduce the crash in a C# application with the
following lines

...
System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer  synth = new SpeechSynthesizer();
synth.SetOutputToDefaultAudioDevice();
...

Function SetOutputToDefaultAudioDevice, requires that basic iteration and a few
registry values are in place.
