I see this same issue, and my crash log is effectively identical to that posted by xman1, including the game version 1.8h. I took an strace of the game, and found the following suspicious call:
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/usr/lib/libfmod.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
Note that it tries to load libfmod from the absolute path "/usr/lib/libfmod.so", so the libfmod shipped with the game is not found. LD_LIBRARY_PATH appears to be ignored too.
Next, I tried temporarily copying the libfmod shipped with the game to the specified system path. However, the game still crashes trying to load libfmod, with the same crash log (including the same line number in the same file). The strace reveals that the file is opened successfully, but for whatever reason, the game still logs the error and quits immediately after without any particularly suspicious syscalls in between.
