Hi,

I'm attempting to use TinyCompress to play a MP3 file on a Baytrail tablet (using bytcr-rt5640 on Linux 4.13-rc7) with ALSA's Compress-Offload API. After finding the right quirks and setting up the UCM files normal audio output is working, but I'm unable to play a MP3 file using the `cplay` tool included with TinyCompress.

Note that `cplay` appears to be broken as of commit 50c2b03 "cplay: check the values of fread". fread returns the number of items that were read but the commit assumes it returns the number of bytes. I've simply changed the check to `read != 1` to fix it.

When I play a MP3 file after fixing that I get a cryptic SST firmware error in dmesg and there is nothing playing on the speakers:

[ 29.080173] intel_sst_acpi 80860F28:00: FW Version 01.0c.00.01 [ 39.575366] intel_sst_acpi 80860F28:00: FW sent async error msg: [ 39.578059] (null)00040009 00000000 [ 39.578068] (null)00040009 00000000 [ 53.872092] intel_sst_acpi 80860F28:00: FW sent async error msg: [ 53.874999] (null)0002000b 00000000 [ 53.875006] (null)0002000b 00000000

I've tried various different MP3 files with different bit rates but this happens for all of them. Is this an indication that it's not supported on my device or is something else wrong?

Other related dmesg messages (but these look all fine to me):

The full dmesg and alsa-info.txt is quite big so I've uploaded it to gist. I hope that's okay. https://gist.github.com/lambdadroid/d46675e54720292ed7718c74247753b5
