The driver doesn't know anything and doesn't care about the number of
channels per transponder. It could only be that the CI code in the
firmware can't handle the number of channels when it tries to open the
filter it needs, or maybe there are no filters left. 
You could try setting the PIDs for the channels (or maybe just for one)
and see what happens.
