Installing and using Wine 1.7.41-staging under PlayOnLinux (still in
Ubuntu 14.10) seems to resolve this problem for me. As this is not the
default Wine in Ubuntu, I guess this is still a bug..

Title:
  Screen flickers when running game Sins of a Solar Empire

Status in mesa package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Problem appeared after update from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04. Game worked
  fine in Saucy with both radeon and fglrx. Now in Trusty only works
  with fglrx. Using radeon driver gives heavy flickering (about 0,5s
  intervals) when running the game (through PlayOnLinux/WINE). I expect
  some other games of other users will have the same problem.
