you guys are, well, quite arrogant.

anyway, for some reason the sound works now. how I got it to work is that I
used a 32-bit manually compiled version of wine to install XCOM & related
dependencies using winetricks, including xact. (version
wine-1.5.13-402-gcd9451c to be precise). interestingly, this wine wouldn't run
XCOM itself, but the 64 bit wine that comes with ubuntu 12.10 (wine-1.5.16)
runs it with sound afterwards.

I'm not sure how the above wizardry made it work though.
