In that case, replay would still be disabled is i2s was shutdown.

Value at address 0x40400004 (0x4001e004): 0x10
Value at address 0x40400000 (0x4001e000): 0xE104

I am using normal i2s mode, so in the original code it is basically 
enabling replay twice in hw_params, then enabling i2s in trigger.  Then 
disabling replay and i2s in shutdown.  I'm trying to understand what the 
real problem is here.  Is something failing that is causing replay to be 
disabled by the i2s controller?  The condition is intermittent.  The 
only difference could be timing, or the data in the transmit FIFO.  When 
it gets in this state I can clear DRPL using devmem2 and it audio will 
start playing.
