The XDISABLE bit solution discussed on the list earlier did not solve the problem fully, additionally I needed to add check for the FIFO state before clearing XDISABLE. Simplified: 1. Set XDISABLE bit 2. Start DMA 3. Start serial port. 4. Wait for the DMA to put data into McBSP FIFO (there is status you can poll for this) 5. Clear XDISABLE bit. I found that without step #4 the FIFO would sometimes be empty on step #5 and switching happened because first word sent was bogus and second was the first audio word. This was on OMAP2430. - Juha -- Madness takes it's toll.
