Detected game 'Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's revenge', version 5.2.2 (version from Monkey Island Madness CD-ROM)
Symptom: After loading any sort of a save, I get incomplete music, only the backbeat is playing. The problem is remedied by changing to an area with different music.

I have had the same problem. Lets say on MI2 you are at woodtick and after the save game is re-loaded you get the queer warbled backbeat. As soon as you travel out of woodtick to say another part of the island then the music re-initialises :)
hope this is a little bit of a work around for ya

It sounds like it's playing the right music, but on the wrong instruments. I would guess that the instruments aren't saved/restored properly. I'm still trying to get a basic understanding of the code that handles the music, so I haven't been able to verify it in any way though.

One way to fix this might be to simply restart the music whenever a game is loaded, no?

You mean like adding a player->jump() or player->scan() to fix_players_after_load(). It's not perfect by any means, but it is a marked improvement.
I'll submit a patch.

The patch was accepted. It doesn't really fix the bug, but it should get it almost right most of the time, and it makes the problem much more bearable. Let me know if there are any problems.

This is a known problem, and has been forever. However nobody has looked at this into any detail yet.
