Would you happen to know what about the kernel could cause this (e.g. some
specific module or range of modules?). Since all non-stock modules (for a
default Debian kernel) that I've got loaded is an nVidia GFX driver. And I'm
using the same driver @ my laptop where WINE doesn't exhibit this issue.

Yes, all of them are functioning properly.
