unable to forward only one selected index in output.conf

I'm trying to disactivate all index for forwaring, and only forward those on the white list, but it doesn't work.

My output.conf
[tcpout]
disabled = false
indexAndForward = false
defaultGroup = shared_indexers
forwardedindex.filter.disable = false
forwardedindex.0.blacklist = .*
forwardedindex.1.whitelist = test

[tcpout:shared_indexers]
disabled = false
autoLB = true
server = ....

Her my default/output.conf
# Version 5.0.6

[tcpout]
maxQueueSize = auto
forwardedindex.0.whitelist = .*
forwardedindex.1.blacklist = _.*
#forwardedindex.2.whitelist = (_audit|_internal)
forwardedindex.filter.disable = false
indexAndForward = false
autoLBFrequency = 30
blockOnCloning = true
compressed = false
disabled = false
dropClonedEventsOnQueueFull = 5
dropEventsOnQueueFull = -1
heartbeatFrequency = 30
maxFailuresPerInterval = 2
secsInFailureInterval = 1
maxConnectionsPerIndexer = 2
forceTimebasedAutoLB = false
sendCookedData = true
connectionTimeout = 20 
readTimeout = 300
writeTimeout = 300 
useACK = false

Although I don't see it in the manual, I thought that the forwardedindex settings only worked if indexAndForward=true

Is there another way to only forward on index, then ?
