Symfony 2: Injecting logger for specific channel/handler to services - symfony

Question

I am working on a Symfony 2 web app and I would like to inject a Monolog logger using a specific channel to a service:
The Config:
monolog:
handlers:
main:
type: stream
path: %kernel.root_dir%/%kernel.environment%.log
level: error
#channels: [!alert]
alert:
type: stream
path: %kernel.root_dir%/%kernel.environment%.alert.log
level: info
channels: [alert]
Service Config:
services:
some_service:
class: Some\Service
arguments: [#logger]
tags:
- { name: monolog.logger, channel: alert }
The Service:
class SomeService {
protected $logger;
public function __construct($logger) {
$this->logger = $logger;
$this->logger->info('Log this!');
}
The prod.log file:
[2016-03-28 11:25:47] alert.INFO: Log this!
The Problem: Although I specifically inject the logger using the alert channel, the message is handled by the main handler. Thus the messages are logged into the prod.log file instead of the prod.alert.log file.
When I leave the line channels: [!alert] as comment, the message is logged to prod.log. When I activate this line by removing the comment, the message is not logged at all (main handler ignores the channel correctly).
What have I to to, in order to use a specific handler to target a specific log file, mailer, etc? Messages to alert channel should be handled by the alert handler while all other handlers are ignored.

Use special service created for Monolog handler:
services:
some_service:
class: Namespace\Some\Service
arguments: ["#monolog.logger.alert"]
