Rhythmbox uses gconfaudiosink with the "music and movies" profile, which is defined in GConf under /system/gstreamer/0.10/default/musicaudiosink
You can choose a device for this via gnome-sound-properties, or you can add your own custom pipeline instead by editing that key manually. Set it to "alsasink device=virtualsurround51" if you want, but Totem (and any other app using the "music and movies" profile) will use this profile, too. If you absolutely need a custom pipeline setting for Rhythmbox specifically, we don't have that currently, but it can be considered.
