Hello folks,

I did some tests as well and it seems the problem only affected Audacity
versions 1.x to 2.0.x. In later versions of Audacity (2.1.0+), the export
menu/dialog appears to have changed.

It's always good to be curious about things.

By doing a reverse bisect I found that starting with commit
https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/6737ac70d6233f6b10f397ee8f94cb23c3ea04fb
("wine.inf: Set default Windows version to win7.") the problem "magically"
disappears (part of Wine 2.2+). Voila - if you set the WINEPREFIX WinVer to
'Windows XP' you still get that erroneous behaviour even with latest Wine 5.0.

Refining summary to reflect that.
