At the minute you can't really.  However, if the CODEC for the voice
interface is mostly empty (which I seem to recall was the case?) then
you can skip registering the CODEC and only register the DAI.

The application layer will do this based on which DAI it chooses to play
audio down - each will appear separately to them, as you're doing below.

Initially I'd suggest testing with hw rather than plughw to make sure
the test is isolated to the drivers.
