What does not

MusicBee can give a file not found if a file has an too long filename. Trying to import the file crashes Musicbee.
Shortening the filename and then importing file works.

Moving the cursor around in the wavebar (if you enabled it) causes glitchyness (flickering screen).

Does not work in 64bits wineprefix.

Workarounds

You need to rename basswma.dll to basswma.dll.bak to access the file converters tab in options.

To remove freezes with album art, install windowscodecs

For japanese characters, install fonts (I installed all fonts via winetricks)

Installing GDIplus gets rid of some errors in the wine debugger, as well as setting winecfg to Windows XP.
