I'm experimenting with making a heading that is like a chapter in format

interlude, or extended example, every few chapters.  The following
almost-minimal example almost does so.  However, the second interlude is
numbered with 'A' instead of 'B'.  Is there a missing key=value pair, or
is the approach completely wrong?
It seem that interlude is like a section,
so it's correct that at every chapter there is a reset of the
alphabetical counter
 

\definesection[nc]
\setupsection[nc][conversion=Characters]
\definehead[interlude][section=nc,default=chapter]
\setuphead[interlude][incrementnumber=yes]

\starttext

\title{Contents}
\placelist[chapter,interlude]

\chapter{Chap 1}

\interlude{Interlude 1}

\chapter{Chap 2}

\interlude{Interlude 2}

\stoptext
