how do you want to install wine ? via synaptic ?

what version of libasound2 is installed ? check it in synaptic; the way the error mssge reads it appears that for hardy 804 it needs 1.0.15 .

if it is not 1.0.15 then remove it with synaptic and just try installing wine again VIA synaptic NOT from wineHQ site - normally it should install without any problem. take a look at

http://www.winehq.org/download/deb

for more info that clarifies the above.
