--- Comment #7 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2011-08-14 00:04:02 CDT --- So far I couldn't reproduce the reported problem in TES4:Oblivion (Steam) on my system.
However, another game, RC Cars exhibits a similar issue for me. The game plays mp3 files as background music and often (but not always) a deadlock occurs when music tracks are changing. The freezing occurs during races when a new song is about to start. The strange is that not every music change triggers the issue (sometimes I'm able to play the game for 10-20 minutes without the problem).
When it happens, Wine prints out: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x1f2248 "gstdemux.c: GSTImpl.csFilter" wait timed out in thread 0032, blocked by 0024, retrying (60 sec)
Sometimes err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x1677f4 "filtergraph.c: IFilterGraphImpl.cs" wait timed out in thread 0009, blocked by 0024, retrying (60 sec) also appears afterwards.
If I wait for about a minute or so, the game eventually crashes.
Using native quartz and devenum dlls and disabling winegstreamer.dll worked around the problem in RC Cars.
