Wine 10.8 console log

When launching Mass Effect: Andromeda for Steam, it first launches the EA App,
which then launches the game. Steam and the EA App work (with workarounds) but
there appears (via htop) to be no attempt to actually load the game.

Running in a virtual desktop allows the game to launch. The graphics are
terrible but that's another issue.

Workarounds:
- arial (Bug 32342) [for Steam & EA App - both CEF]

$ wine 'c:\program files (x86)\steam\steam.exe' -applaunch 1238000

I couldn't find a demo to test.

The game WILL start with Staging 10.7, followed by Bug 58280.

Annoyingly, I can no longer recreate this. Will reopen if I can reliably do so.
