The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)
What works
Installation through steam, opening the game, changing settings, fullscreen mode, choosing songs, audio, graphics....
What does not
Windowed mode thanks to mouse bug, and text input.
Performance is horrible, and the game is almost unplayable. Under wine one gets a fraction of the fps one would expect in windows, and the fps is never stable. I don't have numbers, but I've tested this many times in both linux and windows, and I know that the fps is constantly jumping above 30 fps and below 10 (even if for a split second) even on the lowest settings. This affects gameplay as it severely hampers ones ability to act and react quickly, which results in the player frequently making mistakes.

Poor performance is NOT a hardware issue
Simply make a copy of this file, and move it to the Steam folder you wish to use.
Not the best solution, but gets you logged in.
Questhelper Error
Use the Wine Configuration tool (winecfg or Application -> Wine -> Configure Wine). Use the button “Add application…” to add QuestViewer.exe to the list (NOT audiosurf.exe). QuestViewer.exe is locatied in the engine folder, by default this is ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/audiosurf/engine/QuestViewer.exe
Make sure the QuestViewer.exe entry is selected and open the Libraries tab. Enter usp10 in the “New override for library” field and click Add. The file usp10.dll is also part of the "Microsoft Installer 2.0" package, which can be installed via winetricks.
Window Alignment Glitch
A common problem, where the mouse does not seem to click on the locations it indicates.
This issue in most cases does not exist in full-screen mode. To access this, go to the following file:
~/Steam/steamapps/common/audiosurf/config.ini
And change the line "runfullscreen: false" to "runfullscreen: true", or if there is no line of "runfullscreen", simply paste in "runfullscreen: true".
This will start the game automatically in full-screen mode.
It should be noted that validating the game files through the steam client will reset the config.ini file (it will show as a file corruption).
Mouse Leaves Window, Then Gets Stuck
"Allow DirectX apps to stop the mouse leaving their window" seems to be the cause of this issue. Unchecking this and "Allow the window manager to control the windows" fixes this issue. Both are found in the Wine configuration, under the "Graphics" tab.
Large Music Folders Cause Lockup
Some systems may seem to "lock up" while opening music folders. It is not freezing, simply taking an exceedingly long time. Once loaded, the music folder suffers no latency for the rest of that session - if you've sat through the opening once, you don't have to sit through it again until next time you play.
For some users, creating a symbolic link to your music folder of choice, and naming it "My Music", in the folder ~/.wine/drive_c/users/{Username}/ will cause the slowdown to diminish.

Hello,
The game installs and starts, but the text is unreadable.

Poor fps.......

The problem actually seems to be in openSUSE. I got poor FPS in several games (Audiosurf, TF2, Dawn of War), where the problem was consistently that FPS jumping problem in multiple versions of wine and in Crossover Games.
Things are working much better in (K)ubuntu, which kinda just points back to a problem in openSUSE.
