Tested today with Wine 2.20, videos play still swithout audio
The videos format codec is smush: https://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php/Smush
There is a smush.dll in the aim game folder.
Other interesting thing: if you erase the A3DAPI.DLL located in the aim game
folder, Wine play the cinematics with audio!
But  without the A3DAPI.dll the game can not detect any audio card and the
audio in the game is off.

To learn more about the a3dapi:
http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=174
I installed the last drivers available on this page, the a3dapi.dll version is
superior but still no audio in video.

Can confirm the same issue using wine 3.9, openSuSE tumbleweed.  Killing
A3DAPI.dll has the same effect as described.  Anyone new developments?

Almost three years after opened this bug, I finally found a workaround,  I can
now hear sound from cinematics and sounds ingame is still active. 
Try this: 
download this dll:
https://github.com/legluondunet/MyLittleLutrisScripts/raw/master/Star%20Wars...
put sound.dll file in the main game folder, override dsound to
"native,builtin", launch the game, so?
I found this workaround on tweaking "Beyond Good and Devil", this game needs
sound.dll to avoid audio desync.

The windows 8 iso. 
You are just basically setting dsound to native. 
Winetricks not helping is odd, but maybe it has something to do with the fact
it just installs an XP-presuming dll.

If tinkering with A3DAPI has any effect, my guess is this has something to do
with directsound 3d/hardware buffers. It may have been "improved" as of lately,
if that's the case duplicate of bug 40898.
