getting 3 stereo dsp devices from a 5.1 sound card

[Marc MERLIN <marc_alsa@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't found this anywhere in the FAQs.

If I have a 5.1 sound card, i.e. a card that will drive 6 speakers, I would
like to play 3 different stereo sounds on 3 pairs of 2 speakers so that I
don't have to buy 3 sound cards.

Is this doable? If so do you have a link to instructions and does this
require a specific 5.1 card, or most should do?

Thanks,
Marc
