Comment (by sluicebox):

 We're talking about the scream that always occurs at the start of chapter
 4, not some hypothetical. There is no weird Sierra code involved in this
 equation. You may not be certain, but I've investigated, so I am. =)

 I am suggesting that the OP's environment is silently failing I/O
 inconsistently at a layer below ScummVM. I don't know exactly what that
 looks like, but we're talking about a mandatory scene in a popular game
 randomly failing in multiple low-level ways for one person, and I haven't
 heard any other explanation that survives basic analysis.
