I have no further idea.  You should try the latest kernel without
modification before checking further.

And, looking at the code again, it's really strange that you get those
messages.  Actually the transfer size *is* aligned to the audio frames
as default *unless* QUIRK_FLAG_ALIGN_TRANSFER is passed.  And the
check is done rather the audio sample size alignment -- which must fit
within the audio frame alignment.

So, QUIRK_FLAG_ALIGN_TRANSFER is already set for your device by some
reason incorrectly, or the code is doing wrong on your kernel.
We need to check what values are shown there actually, then check
whether the problem happens with the latest vanilla kernel.
