Start the game by typing f2b -2

The game got another issue with DOSBox too. The stereo sound is reversed, so for the best gaming experience you have to play in mono. Do this by picking the regular Soundblaster as output device in the game options. Not Soundblaster Pro or 16.

Yes, detection is incorrect. This can be circumvented by using '-2' as parameter when starting.

Huh, I wasn't aware of that bug. Is it a detection issue with DOSBox, or just the game?

Just the game. The emulated CD-ROM spins so very fast, the F2B detection bugs out and think it's 1x.

And since the game can take the -2 parameter, it's a non-issue.
