I finally got my hangs on a logical analyzer and gave it a try.

You'll find the start of the playback on H6's i2s0 attached.

It really looks like the polarity of LRCK is fine though. The first word
is sent with LRCK low, and then high, so we have channel 0 and then
channel 1 which seems to be the proper ordering?

Something that is fairly odd though is that there's a delay of about 8ms
(about 387 LRCK periods) between the time where SCK and LRCK start to
output something, and then when the data starts being output.

However, the signal seems to be dephased and will start being output on
the channel 1, which might lead to the behaviour that is seen? you can
see that on the second screenshot attached.
