Yuki, I'm not sure what asoundrc settings you used. Wine will try the device
named "default" and any direct hardware devices that ALSA enumerates. If you
changed "default", I would expect Wine to pick up on that. It won't pick up on
any custom devices automatically. If you created a new device and want Wine to
use it, you can use the ALSAOutputDevices registry setting:

Can you reconfigure your settings to how you'd expect them to be? For example,
if you have 4.1 physical speakers, set that correctly in winecfg; reset to your
usual "default" ALSA device; put Skyrim's settings how you'd like them to be.
Let me know what these settings are.

Then, play Skyrim just long enough to demonstrate the issue, and attach a log
with the channels from <http://wiki.winehq.org/Sound>. The log file will grow
large very quickly, so you'll want to compress it before you upload.
