Troy, do you have any theory yet on why your patch should permanently swap channels?
Memory in 16 bit samples L1,R1,L2,R2
Shifting out in 16 bit samples L1,R1,L2,R2
Memory in 32 bit samples R1L1,R2L2,R3L3
Shifting out in 32 bit samples R1L1,R2L2
Codec sees 16 bit samples R1,L1,R2,L2
If that is the case, wouldn't we see the channel swap on DM644x as well?
From Sekhar's earlier e-mail, the channel swap appears specific to DM355
EVM.

Yes, unless an underrun causes the 1st 16 bit sample to be delayed when transmitting out 16 bit samples at a time. That is why the 16 bit shift leads to random swaps and 32 bit shifts leads to always swapped. When an underrun happens with 32 bit shifts the last sample (both left AND right) is merely shifted again. When an underrun happens with 16 bit shifts only the immediately preceding left OR right channel sample is repeated leading to a random swap.
