We recently up streamed ACP PDM driver for Renoir APU.
Our ACP IP has an internal PDM Decoder block where DMIC is directly connected. There are no KControls defined for PDM Driver.
Our platform supports on board DMIC and South bridge Azalia (HD Audio ) endpoint . By default, DMIC endpoint is used as audio input device. When Headset Mic jack connected, it's not switching to External Mic.
Make sure that the Headset Mic priority port in pulseaudio is is greater than the one for DMIC.
How does audio endpoint will switch in gnome when external mic is connected?
From our understanding, UCM conf file for HDA driver is also required for
configuring mixer controls for HD Audio capture device. Similarly when External Mic is removed , it has to switch to internal dmic .
An configuration example for UCM (DMIC connected to DSP, HDA codec for rest):

If you need a help to create a new configuration for your hardware, show the output from the alsa-info.sh script, please.

This audio design is a bit different from sof-hda-dsp, the dmic is on a standalone sound card. Please see the alsa-info.txt:

And that's an interesting case. Can we manage multiple cards in a single UCM profile?

I am not much familiar with UCM files creation. As per my understanding, UCM entries will program the mixer controls depending up on the use case and selected device.
UCM is more than that. It manages which PCM device is chosen, which jack control corresponds, etc, too.
