I have fixed the white smoke bug myself by installing d9vk component via winetricks. This appears to fix all smoke and it all appears like normal once again.

You can do this by using `winetricks --gui` in a terminal and selecting:

Select the default wine prefix
Install a Windows dll or component
Scroll down to d9vk, tick the box and press ok

The protontricks package in your distribution's package repo can be used to do this for the steam version of SHIII.

However, one issue that I now have is all 2D art except the main menu is now rendered black. The career room and crew management screens all now have a black background. I'm certain a fix exists as I've done some testing through Lutris that fixed this issue and also fixed the white smoke issue.
