Can't select menus or toolbars after opening new document [with fix]

With Photoshop CS2 using CrossOver 13.2 (installed using an older version), the menu bar and toolbars work until I create a new document. After, they register hovers but do not respond to clicks.

Based on information in this bug report:
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28355

I commented out the print driver in win.ini and Photoshop works fine afterwards. To do this:
1) Configure->Manage Bottles
2) Choose the bottle where Photoshop CS2 is installed
3) Bottle->"Open C: Drive"
4) Navigate to the windows folder and open win.ini in your favorite text editor
5) Change:

[devices]
Wine PostScript Driver=WINEPS.DRV,LPT1:
[windows]
device=Wine PostScript Driver,WINEPS.DRV,LPT1:

To:

[devices]
;Wine PostScript Driver=WINEPS.DRV,LPT1:
[windows]
;device=Wine PostScript Driver,WINEPS.DRV,LPT1:

6) Save and run Photoshop CS2

The bug report mentions that the problem has been fixed in Wine 1.7.0, so hopefully when the code goes into Crossover, this will not be necessary.

If the bug has been fixed in wine 1.7.0 then it should be in CrossOver 13.2 which is based on 1.7.4. Problem is that if the bottle was upgraded some of the old settings might have lingered on. Could you test with a fresh bottle please?
