Hi, this is a very well known problem since at least a year.

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1757#issuecomment-516866929

Very easy to repro. Any cutscene in the game goes out of sync , sometimes
basically skips the audio and repeats itself again.

Happens with esync/fsync on. Tested on both normal Wine builds , custom Wine
builds and also Proton too.

You can also see Protondb page of the game is filled with advices towards to
disabling esync/fsync and people who didn't disable it noted cutscene audio
issues.

Because it is an issue over a year with every build , i didn't specify any Wine
version in bug report.

The "version" field should be set to the earliest known version to display the
bug.

Note also that Proton, Lutris, and other wrappers and custom patch sets are not
supported in this bug tracker.

Can you please attach a log with +sync,+esync,+server,+timestamp,+pid, both
with eventfd synchronization enabled and disabled?

Is there any ETA when esync will be rebased and re-enabled?

I recorded logs with and without esync and +sync,+esync,+server,+timestamp,+pid
with the uplay version of the game and plain wine-staging 5.7:

no esync:

Fwiw it is still same with Wine 6.0 RC builds.

Issue also occurs with no esync/fsync but so rare compared to running with
esync/fsync.

Another Ubisoft game suffers from a similar issue. In a different way.

https://www.ubisoft.com/en-gb/game/immortals-fenyx-rising/free-demo

Same engine , another cutscene issue. Dialogs doesn't get skipped or repeat
themselves ( unlike Odyssey) but they're out of sync compared to visuals, sound
comes approx 1 second later than normally how it should be.

I linked the demo, it is very easy to observe that behaviour.
