[alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/2] ALSA: dice: fix stream format parameters for TC Electronic Studio Konnekt 48

[Takashi Sakamoto]

TC Electronic Studio Konnekt 48 is an application of combination of
WaveFront Dice II STD and TC Applied Technologies (TCAT) TCD2210 (Dice
Mini). The latter is on a board with BNC and optical interfaces, thus
used for signal processing for word clock, S/PDIF and ADAT. This model
doesn't support TCAT extended application protocol. For such devices,
ALSA dice driver needs to have hard-coded parameters for stream formats.

This commit fixes stream format parameters for this model. Unfortunately, at
sampling transmission frequencies over 48.0kHz, I confirmed that current
ALSA dice driver doesn't drive the device appropriately to generate sounds
(silence). I guess that this comes from timestamping quirk of Dice-based
devices, which I reported.
