When I ran the program as su, it set up a new .wine directory in root. The problem might actually be that you ran Wine as root (super-user) and not as a regular user when you created the Prefix (bottle as some folks like to call it.) Does what you describe happen if you delete the prefix you created as superuser and then try to create a new prefix and install/run the program as a regular user (I'm quite confused by all of the traffic in this thread and just want clarification.)
