I had no idea that there was a wave module in Python, that's a great
suggestion, thanks!

You'll find attached the screenshots for both the I2S and DSP_A formats.
I zoomed out a bit to be able to have the first valid samples, but it
should be readable.

The code I used is there:
https://github.com/mripard/linux/tree/sunxi/h6-i2s-test

It's basically the v3, plus the DT bits.

As you can see, in the i2s case, LRCK starts low and then goes up, with
the first channel (0x2*** samples) transmitted first, so everything
looks right here.

On the DSP_A screenshot, LRCK will be low with small bursts high, and
once again with the first channel being transmitted first, so it looks
right to me too.
