I'm going to try to install wine out side of portage and see if it helps.
Rebuilding wine from source did not help. However, by setting the sound drivers to ALSA, instead of OSS, I was able to view the opening video with sound and get to the 3D menu screen. However, when I when to New game it would go to a loading screen and get almost to the end before hl2.exe would crash and give the same backtrack that I posted above.
