It looks like any support for "alias" as a tone zone alias feature was removed back in 2009 (in git commit 4ec301360cdd84be911b06cd0adda2459d66bc6e) as part of a code cleanup likely because alias was poorly conceived and didn't work. What you have done by defining "alias" now is to define a tone event called alias with a tone cadence of "gb".
