I suspect it's worth fixing in 3.3 then, there's often issues where userspace applications don't work that don't get reported well or at all, often these are due to issues in the pointer implementations. People end up coming up with configurations that work around them and never think that there might be a driver issue.
I'm not good at detail of user side applications, but aplay was working correctly on old/PIO FSI. So, I didn't notice it.
aplay is (un)fortunately pretty forgiving here - PulseAudio is the most difficult test, though some other applications do run into issues too. Anyway, can you please generate a version of this for 3.3 (or confirm if the current patch is OK for there) so we can integrate the change there?
The change itself seems good, it's just that it'd be better done as a fix.
