Can you print these with dev_err(dapm->dev, ...); so we can see the context
where it is going to be added?
It might worth asking the core to prefix the codecs DAPM, so you avoid name
duplication on the same context.
Both cs4271 and ak4101 have 'Playback'/'Capture' names for the streams.

BTW: do you see error messages about name duplication ("widget %s already
exists for context\n")? Or warning about already existing debugfs entries from
DAPM?
