PlayOnLinux and Diablo 3 ROS: Get pass that "Retrieving Hero List" bug!

PlayOnLinux is a welcomed tool to make Wine configuration fairly painless. The default D3 installation option works, however playing the game with the default options won't work. The game is rendered very slowly and has choppy audio and gets stuck on "Retrieving Hero List"

This is how I fixed it( Ubuntu 14.04 and fglrx drivers):

Highlight "Diablo III", Click on "Configure" on PlayOnLinux toolbar and add "-opengl" in Arguments.

The frame rate should be a lot better now but you will be stuck at "Retrieving Hero List..."

On Ubuntu desktop, selected the Diablo III shortcut placed by PlayOnLinux and edit it to include "setarch i386 -3 " prefix in Command textbox:

The game should work  smoothly now.
