Starting with version 2.10a of Synopsys DesignWare HDMI controller the insert_pcuv bit was introduced. On RK3399pro SoM (Radxa Rock Pi N10) for example if we neglect to set this bit and proceed to enable hdmi_sound and i2s2 on the device tree there will be extreme clipping of sound output, to the point that music sounds like white noise. Problem could also manifest as just mild cracking depending of HDMI audio implementation of sink. Setting insert_pcuv bit (bit 2 of aud_conf2 Audio Sample register) fixes this.
