Hi Ben, Takashi,

The following comments from our Accessory BU hardware team FYI.
//
Most of dock audio is converted from USB if it is connected by cable, but CS13 Mechnical dock is not. We need to know the specific dock model first.
//

Thanks,

Thank you Takashi. 
I will also double confirm it with our Accessory BU guys about Ben's question when I back to my office. And will let you know if there was any different answer from them.

FYI, because of this unclearness, the patch from Benjamin is still pending.  I'm OK to apply it at first, then adjust later if the docking station quirk is required, too.  Just let me know.


thanks,

Takashi
