Do we really want to do this?
This error message has historically been the means by which we detect that userspace didn't set the right mixers (e.g. on Intel Baytrail) or the topology was incorrect. And it's really an error in the sense that you will not get audio in or out.
If you demote this to dev_dbg, we'll have to ask every single user who reports 'sound is broken' to enable dynamic debug traces. I really don't see the benefit, this is a clear case of 'fail big and fail early', partly concealing the problem doesn't make it go away but harder to diagnose.
Thanks for the explanation, it seems I misunderstood this error message.
