--- Comment #22 from Chris schM0ggi@web.de --- BG Music and Sounds (midi) do play without problems after going through these steps:
1. Install the components directx9 d3dx9_43 directmusic dsdmo via winetricks
2. As RPG Maker XP rely on Microsoft Synthesizer (hardcoded), you need the sound source file (.DLS format). The file can be extracted from the redistributable runtime package DirectX (e.g. version 8.1 or 9c). The file is not included anymore in the versions you can obtain via winetricks so you need a wayback source. Here is one:

Extract the package (e.g. with 7z) and then extract the DirectX.cab (e.g. with cabextract). In the extracted folder, you can find the gm16.dls file.
Rename this file to gm.dls and copy it to windows/system32/drivers or windows/syswow64/drivers (when using a 64 bit prefix) in your wine prefix where RPG Maker XP is installed.
After this, midi starts to play. No need for tinkering with registry, alsa, synthesizers etc.
