[Haskell-beginners] Trying to write netwire combiner similar to multicast

I am trying to write a netwire combiner similar to multicast. The only
difference is that when one of the wires inihibts, I want to remove it
from the list.
So this is my attempt:
manager :: (Monad m) => [Wire e m a b] -> Wire e m [a] [b]
manager ws' = mkGen $ \dt xs' -> do
res <- mapM (\(w,x) -> stepWire w dt x) $ zip ws' xs'
let filt (Left a, b) = Just (a, b)
filt _ = Nothing
resx = mapMaybe filt res
return (Left $ (fmap fst) resx,manager (fmap snd resx))
ghc gives this compiler error:
Couldn't match type `e' with `[e]'
`e' is a rigid type variable bound by
the type signature for
manager :: Monad m => [Wire e m a b] -> Wire e m [a] [b]
Expected type: [(e, Wire [e] m a b)]
Actual type: [(e, Wire e m a b)]
In the second argument of `fmap', namely `resx'
In the first argument of `manager', namely `(fmap snd resx)'
Now this, I do not get.
Why does manager expect an argument of type [(e, Wire [e] m a b)].
The type signature clearly says [(e, Wire e m a b)] (which is what it is
