Hello, and merry christmas everyone!

I'm trying to use my 2 surround speakers as a simple stereo output and I get 
this error :

$ aplay -Drear plop.wav
ALSA lib pcm.c:1969:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Invalid type for PCM rear definition 
(id: rear, value: cards.pcm.rear)
aplay: main:544: audio open error: Invalid argument

Trying with -Dplug:rear results with exactly the same error.

Some information on my system :
$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [nForce2        ]: NFORCE - NVidia nForce2
                     NVidia nForce2 with ALC650F at 0xdb087000, irq 11

ALSA version :1.0.10

I obtain those results without any asoundrc...

As a workaround, I'm using

pcm.prear {
    type plug
    slave.pcm surround51
    slave.channels 6
        ttable.0.2 1
        ttable.1.3 1

}

which works, but blocks the whole device. Should I hope for better ? If not, 
shoudln't the rear device do that for me already ?

Thanks,
Bruno
