It works...!!!

That's what I did:

1) I plugged the Behringer into the mains;

2) I connected the Behringer to the PC via Behringer's USB cable;

3) I plugged 3 amplified loudspeaker (could also be not amplified but then
   sound is low) into 3 of the 4 black holes (the TRS ones, but it could be ok
   also with the RCA ones, I didn't try yet) of the `PLAYBACK OUTPUTS' system
   on the back of the Behringer;

4) from my Linux box I did:

   $ ecasound -f:16,3,44100 -i:sndfile,3canali.wav -o alsaplugin,2,0

   where `3canali.wav' is a 3-channels file.

And voilà: each of the 3 loudspeakers play a different channel of the 3
channels composing `3canali.wav'.  There don't seem to be any issue with
Behringer's controls: the `MAIN OUT' and `MIX' knobs can be whatever, such as
the `STEREO/MONO' switch (so it seems).

Thanks to each and all that helped...!

Cheers

Rodolfo
