Hi While testing the audio driver using aplay in blocking mode, a periodic murmur is observed, this increases with the audio volume and occurs even when there are no issues like xrun etc. Aplay was used in normal read/write mode i.e. no mmap. The song can be heard properly i.e. with no noticable gaps aur hisses but the clicks are audible.
Clock domain mismatch issues cause periodic ticks that increase in frequency with increasing sample rate. It's possible your clocking the codec and controller in two different clock domains. i.e. I2S controller (bitclk and frame) clocked from CPU and codec clocked from separate crystal.
It's best to make sure that only one clock is clocking both the codec and digital audio interface.
