--- Comment #11 from debilerpc at web.de ---
Hi, I figured out the reason for this problem on my system, which had nothing
to do with Wine, although Wine was the only place where it manifested.

During an Arch Linux a system update, it seems the deprecated file
~/.config/plasma-locale-settings.sh became converted to
~/.config/plasma-localerc, and thus became activated again. At least that's my
theory why the problem only manifested after the last update, and why both
files were present.

More info:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/locale#My_system_is_still_using_wrong_language

This file contained the invalid locale en_DE for unclear reasons. What it did
was setting the user locale to en_DE after logging into Plasma Desktop. It
seems every app *except* Wine defaulted to a valid locale. Wine however
defaulted to ASCII.

The problem completely went away after deleting ~/.config/plasma-localerc.
