[XeTeX] velthuis tranliteration scheme and virama

Bonjour, I am facing a problem with virama while using the velthuis tranliteration scheme : according the velthuis-sanskrit.map file, virama is mapped to "&" and "_". I use FreeSerif fonts and some ligatures can be acceeded using a virama eg.: r+r-vocalic (r.r) gives: रृ or r+virama+r-voca
