[FFmpeg-user] 5.1 -> mp3 loses the "effects" .1 channel?

Hello all.
I noticed that with this file:

http://rogerdpack.t28.net/incoming/9.wav

and the below conversion to mp3, it correctly "merges" the 5 audio
channels, but seems to discard the "effects" .1 channel.
Anybody know if this is expected?
Thanks!
