You are not compiling FluidSynth for multiple platforms but only for Windows. Your Windows program also runs under Wine, because Wine is a compatibility layer to run Windows binaries on non-Windows platforms.

That is simply not possible. Your eOrgan software is a Windows program, pure and simple. Wine executes your Windows program and translates Windows system calls into Linux or Mac (or whatever) system calls. It does so transparently. There is no way that you can access ALSA or any other Linux API from an application running under Wine. Linux is invisible to your program.
