**Summary of the bug:**
As the subject matter infers.
FFmpeg does not respect the {{{-program}}} parameter combination(s) with
the underlying mpegts muxer(s) when it's called up from either {{{tee}}}
or the {{{fifo}}} muxer(s).
A trivial example where this works perfectly with the mpegts muxer to
create multiple PMTs associated with an audio & video stream pair is shown
below:
{{{
ffmpeg -init_hw_device cuda=cu:0 \
-filter_hw_device cu \
-thread_queue_size 5120 -f lavfi -i
testsrc=duration=360:size=1920x1080:rate=60 \
-thread_queue_size 5120 -f lavfi -i "sine=frequency=2000:duration=360" \

}}}
{{{ffprobe}}} confirms the correct creation of the PMTs and the associated
streams:

Now, attempting the same with the {{{tee}}} and/or {{{fifo}}} muxer(s),
independently or combined, and with the {{{-program}}} parameter(s)
defined globally as shown in the trivial example below:

Results in this output from {{{ffprobe}}}:

Demonstrating that only one PMT is created, with all the streams bundled
therein.
Attempting to pass these {{{-program}}} parameters directly to the
underlying mpegts muxer(s) called by either tee or fifo, as shown below:
{{{

-f tee "[f=mpegts:program=title=Stream 1:st=0:st=1:program=title=Stream
2:st=2:st=3]dump_stream.ts"
}}}
Now results in this failure:
{{{

[mpegts @ 0x798844c7b380] Unknown option 'program'
[tee @ 0x602719acf580] All tee outputs failed.

}}}
Which implies that the {{{tee}}} and/or {{{fifo}}} muxers are not mapping
that program option to the underlying mpegts muxer(s) , be it globally OR
directly in the configuration string(s) within the pseudomuxers.
**Impact:**
This breaks flows that require the resilience of the tee and fifo
pseudomuxers with multi-program mpegts generation.
