We use the CS4270 in many projects (external soundcards) and in some of them, we even link up to four of them together and put them all to slave mode which works perfectly fine. It's just the first time I use it on a Linux based board, though. Setting the MCLKs for slave mode is probably not necessary (the datesheet says so, too), but it doesn't harm either. We're doing that for our other applications, so I copied the behaviour. In general, I can says that this codec is a very smoothly working piece of hardware, we never had any hazzle with it and use it for years now - what are the effects that you see?
