Based in Kimmo's analysis, this isn't something we can easily fix in Wine. I made a change to prefer builtin over native xaudio2, so this crash should be something users have to opt-in to by setting native overrides. If there are problems with builtin, we should fix those.
(I also sent a pull request to winetricks to do the right thing there considering this change.)

xaudio2: Prefer builtin version.Was this change put into place as a global setting for all wine applications?
Yes.
As of wine 3.5, I started to see bug 44381 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44381 affecting regular Skyrim. This would be a new regression for Skyrim as of this version of wine.
Thanks
Setting xaudio2_7, or whichever xaudio version the game uses, to native should fix this. The "xact" verb in winetricks will now do this.
