Hit Win+R and type in msinfo32 and press enter. In Software Environment\Windows Error Reporting, you will have to search for any entries that include Reckoning.exe and check if the faulty module is XAudio2_7.dll.
To fix it, go ahead and stop the TabTip.exe process. Simply, you can create a batch command in order to run the game.
You can do this by creating the batch file below and saving it as a .cmd and launching it as administrator. You can also create a shortcut to .cmd and run it as administrator in its options.
taskkill /f /im “tabtip.exe”
start /d “<path-to-game>” Reckoning.exe

The Xbox One S Controller, once connected through Bluetooth will cause the game to stutter. This can annoy one a lot and even make the game unplayable. You will have to use the controller in its wired mode to fix this.
