If they're added to default.conf, they should be added to
extra-hdmi.conf (it only has 5.1), force-speaker.conf and
force-speaker-and-int-mic.conf too. And before you say anything, yes,
this duplication is bad, feel free to fix it. I believe it would work if
the other files would include default.conf, the syntax is

.include default.conf

Sorry, I don't know where I got that idea from. The 5.1 mappings seem
all to be there.
