Thanks! So it still has only a single audio pin.

OK, so we'd need to track the active port in anyway, so the necessary
change in the audio side seems minimal. At most, some extension of
component ops (e.g. allowing to pass port=-1) would be necessary.

Aha, interesting. But keeping it wouldn't hurt so much :)

OK, so maybe it's safer to start with only CTG and ELK.
