    I have no idea if mods work in PlayOnLinux. The static and squeaky voices is related to Alsa and Pulseaudio.
    There are several posts here about some quick fixes.
    I'll have to search for them

    When programs runs out of memory, it's hard for them to keep processing! I thought, "hey, maybe if he increases it it will work".

    Anyway, for your stick keys problem there's a solution. I haven't tested it myself but. Turn off keyboard repeats. In the terminal, type

    xset -r off

    When you are done playing, remember turning it back on! Else the backspace is gonna be a tad... annoying.

    Those are normal errors. I've encountered them myself

    If you are using PlayOnLinux just go to Tools -> Close all PlayOnLinux software

    If you aren't using a wrapper then

    $ export WINEPREFIX=/PATH/TO/BOTTLE
    $ wineserver -k

    Sometimes processes hangs in WINE, it's something that commonly happens.
