I suppose you're testing with HD-audio, right? HD-audio has a restriction that it accepts only even numbered streams (2, 4, 6, 8). The error comes from the definition of surround21, i.e. the odd numbers. But, you can still use this definition by wrapping with plug, so that the missing one channel is filled automatically while using the given channel allocation. thanks, Takashi
