Usually aux devices are used for things like analog amplifiers that clearly don't have a digital interface, thus it really makes no sense to have a DAI link connecting them. So I guess my question here would be what is the thinking on making the "smart amplifier" dailess? It feels like having a CODEC to CODEC DAI between the CODEC and the AMP would be a more obvious way to connect the two devices and would presumably avoid the issues being discussed around the patch.
Or is this a device where for some reason (consistency?) there really is no DAI and someone has decided to make an analogue amplifier with a soundwire control interface?
