[Bug 38415] New: Switching weapons does not work after dying

Bug ID: 38415
           Summary: Switching weapons does not work after dying
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.39
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Here's a strange one:

Deus Ex works beautifully in Wine but I noticed after I die, beginning a new
game and pressing one of the keyboard buttons to switch weapons no longer works
as it did.

Wine/Deus Ex registers the key press because the Doom-style weapon switcher at
the bottom of the screen registers the new weapon but the game does not
actually switch weapons.

Using the same 1.112fm Deus Ex "Game of the Year" edition installer on Windows
XP and Windows 8, this bug does not occur, implying there's something fishy
with Wine instead.

I can reproduce the problem in Deus Ex:GOTY (the problem is not present in the
original demo version).

Looks like some Windows users also have this bug:

There are many mods available to the game, I tried the Shifter mod and that
fixed the issue in Deus Ex:GOTY for me:

Tested in Wine 1.7.41, Deus Ex:GOTY (GOG)

Hm, strange.

I'd still lean toward this being a possible Wine bug because the same install
CD for me does not produce this issue on Windows XP or Windows 8.1.
