Or very high frequency PCB's where due to skin depth AC resistance varies with frequency, but were way above the audio band.

At audio frequencies it will behave more like a screened piece of wire than a coaxial transmission line. It might not even have a well-defined characteristic impedance over the audio band, but fortunately unless it is a few miles long this won't matter.

Exactly, as far as using it for shielded inter/intra connects I think it would do well.
