I may be wrong but it may be a wrong configuration of the outputs. I
made a patch some time ago for that but I've never been able to test it
on other configuration than 2 channels output. In fact, I only
remembered of this patch when reading your mail :(

I'm not sure it's still applying on current version of the
patch_analog.c file but you may be interested in looking at it:

If you can also test it in 4 channel mode, this would be nice. In the
case of all is working, one could ask to merge the patch :)

Regards,
Arnaud
