Agreed.

It has always bothered me, I'll take a look and check if there is a reason why 
it is like that, and if possible I'll change the mcbsp->id to be 0 based (thus 
harmonizing the internal and external interface).

I'm not sure, but you might need to configure the taps as well to have the 
correct sidetone.
Also I have a recollection, that the McBSP sidetone requires DSP mode (TDM) in 
order to operate correctly, so on Beagle you might need to set up 4 channel 
mode. And how the channel mapping in 4 channel mode works in McBSP sidetone is 
another matter...
