This is probably caused by the Linux kernel driver, not supporting periodic
effects. What steering wheel do you use?

This is probably caused by the buggy implementation of Wine's dinput concerning
force directions (POLAR case). Right now, the effect's force will always point
in (approximately) the same direction, which is left in your case.
I'm working to get this and many other bugs fixed.

Probably related to 1), the driver might says it doesn't support that effect
(or the parameters used in that effect.)
