Sorry, I do not understand what you're doing. The only exe you have to call is the exe of the steam installer (exe or msi).
Under Xubuntu 16.10 I just use the official PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds
sudo apt-get update
Then I've installed steam under wine. For example:
wget https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/client/installer/SteamSetup.exe
wine start SteamSetup.exe
After that I just started my steam client under wine (over the desktop icon wine has created) and launched Doom. (Need some time to download.)
That's all I did.
For optional Vulkan support I've installed:
sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev libvulkan1 vulkan-utils
Never tried playonlinux so far. Sorry, can't help with this.
Used the FAQ in the link, game runs out of the box, perfect performance with vulkan.

Just add another steam library folder that references the steamapps folder in the 32bit wine bottle and it will work fine.
Congratulation! :)
It seems I had problems with the 375.20 binary driver. The game has hung-up during load screens when I used vulkan. After updating to the 375.26 driver I can't reproduced the problem any more. Played 2h with vulkan without any problems. The game runs very smoothly. Have played Doom 20 years ago. What a fun! :)

Have not found a public party yet. I need to set something in the game options I think. Will try on weekend.
I saw only a few minor graphic glitches. It runs very stable with nvidia binary driver 375.26. I've been playing for several hours.
