New description:

 With the new release V2.6.0 (my computer is an 2017 intel MacBook Air with
 the latest macOS Monterey 12.5) I discovered a new bug with Waxworks. When
 you enter the Pyramids or the Mine and you got hit by an enemy, the game
 crashes. The engine just can not load the sound file. This happens with my
 original boxed Amiga version, as well as the GOG.com PC version. I tested
 the English and German version. With the former V2.5.1 this bug isn't
 there. I also checked the latest nightly build. As far as I can tell other
 AGOS games such as Elvira I & II runs smooth as before.

 In the PC version is a workaround. If you disable "Prefer digital sound
 effects" in the Game tab, the game doesn't crash. Of course this only
 works with the PC version, not the Amiga one.
