[alsa-devel] [linux-sunxi] [BUG] On Allwinner A20 Board Cubietruck distorted SPDIF opical output

[Code Kipper]

Hi Markus,
I've been able to reproduce this on my A31 board with linux-next(plays
at 44100 but not at 96K)so it is an issue. I also tested the same code
on my A64 and it worked fine, The blocks are very similar so it maybe
a clocking issue, I'll look into this.
BR,
CK
