The message box appears to be due to the program trying to query a device capable of recording mp3. Since we currently have no way to encode mp3, it fails (and evidently doesn't bother to check the reason for failure.)
I can't replicate the subsequent failure to play audio with WINE 2.9 on Manjaro 17.
After some retesting I'm no longer convinced this is the reason for failure—Windows' native mpeg codec should be decode-only.
