Based on posts i've seen I believe that there is currently a but in the support for ATI cards and vkd3d which means it isn't working, at the moment it's NVidia only. though I'm sure there is a fix in the works

The secret was to create an empty prefix, different than the Ubisoft Connect one.
Here below my additional setup:

It was recommended to copy both, as the game is loading also the Dx11 library. But in the end the most relevant focal change for me has been to create an empty Win64 wine prefix from scratch, different than the Ubisoft Connect one.
I am using this Lutris configuration for making the run easier:

I generated it by launching an empty wine configuration:
WINEPREFIX=/home/user/Games/ac-valhalla-pfx WINEARCH=win64 winecfg
Ubisoft Connect would still be loaded from the former path, but running with the updated prefix.
Probably you are already launching the Ubisoft Connect executable, and that error might be a security issue (I.e.: wrongly triggering an Anti-Cheat control or missing CA Certificates). Which distro are you on?
Seriously, check if this topic might be relevant for you:

On Debian Bullseye, a few CA Certificates disappeared after an update in last July, and no App running on top of wine (EA Origin, Amazon Kindle, etc.) was able to connect to servers for DRM-protected content.
