that just edits the registry in ~/.wine  You can have a ton of
Wineprefix's that allow you to edit the registry among other things
that maybe specific to the type of program you are running.  For me I
have:

.wineWow
.wineStarCraft2
.wineSteam
.wineSteamwithSpecialsforcertaingames
etc

so if you only use ~/.wine than you can just  regedit alsareg.reg

but if you want diff wineprefixes to test so if it does mess up your
not messing up the prefix for your other games, you can do:

WINEPREFIX="/home/username/.wineTestingSound" regedit alsareg.reg

I hope I explained this well.  I tend to not articulate what I mean
very well at times.
