CHEWY: Crash during intro

[joeraz]

In the latest daily build (2.6.0git6259-g19c3f539a73), when I try to start Chewy: ESC from F5, the game crashes for me during the intro sequence.

First, I see the game logo appear, then there's a scene where a red spaceship flies by - during this scene, the game, and ScummVM always just crashes to the desktop. I tried running ScummVM from a command prompt window - no error is outputted, it just quits completely. If I hit escape before the crash, it skips to the main menu and I can play from there, but otherwise, it just crashes. After doing this a couple times, the game just automatically skips the intro, though the crash happens again after removing and re-adding the game configuration.

I attempted to run the game on two computers - one Windows 10 and the other Windows 11, and got the same results on both.

I have the same issue with the current daily build 2.6.0pre26-gdac4ba3e1d9 on macOS 12.4.
I tested a bit and could avoid the crash when changing the audio options of the game.
When I override global audio settings and set "Text and speech" to Subtitles or both the intro works and doesn't ScummVM doesn't crash anymore, setting it to Speech

Unfortunately for me the intro isn't playing correctly the parts where they speek is skipped almost immediately also it could be that the playback is a bit too fast.
Also there is no music during the sequence but I think that's a known issue.

The intro should be fixed now, for both speech + subtitles and speech only setting
