I'm not sure what this means, sync with which clock?

Hrm, you are using the DX pin as FSR for the capture? Why not McBSP.FSR pin?

Looking back to the patch, one thing stood out: you are setting the
XDATDLY to 2.
You have some sort of T1 framing on the bus? The pullup will make the DX
line high in for the framing bit, right?
Or you simulate another FSR line with T1 framing DX?

The 'ti,drive-dx' sounds like a bad property for sure, you have T1
framing and driving the DX to certain level.
It is like DSP_A (1 bit delay) playing constant 0x2 ?

Can you use aplay /dev/zero and a DT property to select T1 framing for
the playback? Or that would be too coarse for timing the start of
playback and capture?
