When pressing `Esc` during dialogue of ''Whispers of a Machine''
(`ags:whispersofamachine`), the behavior for ScummVM is different than in
the original interpreter.
== Reproduction Steps
1. Start a new game
2. While on the train with the old man (or any other dialogue), press the
`Esc` key to bring up the menu
3. Press the `Esc` key again to resume play
== Original behavior
The line of dialogue is skipped and the next one begins.
== ScummVM behavior
The entire scene is skipped and the next one begins.
== Tested on
* [https://store.steampowered.com/app/631570 Steam version of the game],
macOS
* ScummVM 2026.1.0, macOS
