Hi! I suppose the best way to start might be to create some pcm-device in your .asoundrc or asound.conf. There you know exactly how many channels you have. Only other thing _I_ can imagine might help is: startup alsamixer, see how many playback channels you have, look for the setting of your card's internal clock and then try again. If you don't have to rely on alsa, you could try it with jack. It's much simpler because you see all channels, listed as ports and then you can connect them as you wish. HTH.
