List,

After capturing data from DMIC on OMAP4 blaze board with kernel 2.6.38 and save wav data to 38.wav.

But aplay complains "no valid backend routes". See following,

$aplay -f dat 38.wav [ 157.167724] asoc: no valid backend routes for PCM: SDP4430 Media aplay: main:654: audio open error: Invalid argument

This means you have not configured an audio route for playback (i.e. the audio is not routed anywhere from pcm hw:0,0). Use alsamixer and configure the kcontrols to define the audio path. The kcontrol mappings to audio paths are detailed here for OMAP4 :-
