Make sure you add all units you intend to speak or receive messages on created custom channel to the channel.

WARNING: Be aware that created channels order and count are different between server and client. Example 3 shown that server-side channel ID is actually 4, while client currentChannel on the same channel results in 9. Behaviour is yet unknown for me.
