If you can't generate the LRCLK you either need a different
source clock or to use the PLL. You don't want to be trying to
pull 44.1k audio over a link that is clocked on a 48k based
clock.

Is the problem here that the PLL part of the code is making the
same assumption as the direct part of the code was, that the bclk
should be exact?

Thanks,
Charles
