Crash reports

If Q2PRO crashes, provide a crash report (Windows) or a backtrace (Linux). On Linux, backtrace can be created by launching Q2PRO with gdb q2pro --args [...] and typing bt after the crash.

I found what the problem was, but not why:

I regularly test out multiple builds of q2pro at once, to detect changes between branches and so forth. Renaming q2pro to q2pro1 or anything except q2pro will not play any sound, but rename it back to q2pro and it works again. This is new, as I've generally always had a renamed executable to test side-by-side with stable master and have not encountered this issue before.

As far as I'm aware, nothing has changed in Q2PRO that may have influenced this. Perhaps some PulseAudio/Pipewire "application profiles" are at play here? I don't use PulseAudio/Pipewire myself but I suspect these can use different configuration depending on process name.

Thanks, I will see if it's a Linux-specific thing. Another member of the team was testing out the Windows build and sounds worked for him, except when playing back older MVDs; the footsteps sounds disappeared, so it's likely a separate issue.

Closing this as this may be a Linux-specific issue and I'm unable to test it on another system.
