JACK handles XRuns by stopping and start the ALSA device. On occasion, this leads to early underruns on start leading to reorderd output channels.

By filling the FIFO initially, we can avoid these early underruns. This is also suggested by the i.MX8MM reference manual:

"If the Transmit FIFO is empty, then to avoid a FIFO underrun, the Transmit Data Register must be written at least 3 bit clocks before the start of the next unmasked word. Before enabling the transmitter, the Transmit FIFO should be initialized with data (since after the transmitter is enabled, the transmitter will start a new frame, and if no data is in the FIFO, then the transmitter will immediately give an error)"

There may be an issue here for the case that selected pins are not continuous. for example: select pin 0, 2, 4, 6
