Description
I found these issues when coming back to the game, did further testing on a fresh install of Retroarch and NXEngine + CaveStory. Music doesn't play in any instance from the title screen to mimiga village, sound effects work fine (once got glitched sounds upon picking up the health item)
Game crashes upon certain conditions: After about 16 seconds in mimiga village after the cutscene,
on the not-fresh install, game crashed after the end of the cutscene before the balcony misery boss fight and also twice in the waterways which I'm not sure why
Note: the crashes completely shut down Retroarch, and running Doukutsu.exe directly seems to not have these issues.

Research direction
Reproduce the missing music and crashes in RetroArch using fresh and existing NXEngine plus Cave Story installs. Compare behavior with running Doukutsu.exe directly, then narrow the triggers around the Mimiga Village cutscene, Balcony Misery fight, and waterways. Done means music plays and RetroArch no longer shuts down under the reported conditions.
