Problem(s):
1. Intro and in-game videos are unskippable (pressing any key should skip the
videos).
2. In mid-game most of the keyboard shortcuts work, except for the <Esc> key,
which should switch between the main game and the menu screen. Pressing <Esc>
during the game has no effect.

The game uses dinput.dll. Native dinput.dll didn't help here, the mouse pointer
stuck in the middle of the screen so I couldn't get past the main menu.

This was caused by

dinput: GetDeviceData always succeeds regardless if buffering is enabled or
device is acquired.

The patch cannot be reverted on current git (wine-1.3.30-205-g472a8f7), but
git checkout 157528eb0f826f1008488097e361ffc2872d640f  >> keys not working
git reset --hard HEAD^  >> keys are working

Unlike bug #28731, this one is still present as of wine-1.3.30-205-g472a8f7.

Steps to reproduce the problem in the demo:
Install...launch. When the main menu appears select Single Player -> View Intro
> > you can't skip the intro movie.

Terminal output doesn't reveal anything interesting. Here I'm attaching a
+dinput log. The log was created by starting the intro video from the menu and
pressing <Space> several times. Afterwards I killed the game immediately.
