you hopefully know that sourround21 stands there for 2+1 and 40 stands for 4
outputs
Also it is explained in documents like for example on the alsa-project web

https://alsa-project.org/wiki/DeviceNames

I sometimes wonder if some peoples google is broken. For me it worked quite

another excellent reading is
