Yes, it looks like the output paths are OK from the DAPM point of view.

I'll have a look at it at some point, but not right now :) .  I should
also have asked you if you could post your machine driver - if you'd
rather post it off-list that'd be fine.

Indeed, the main thing I need to check is to confirm what is normally
done with mono channels - in any case, the codec should at least make
some noise providing the rates are correct and there's stereo data.

I take it the digital audio looks fine with a scope - clocks at the
correct rate, sensible looking data and so on?
