Ah, oops, I forgot to change this, thanks!
Did you look for some register you can observe the change in when the
mux is reconfigured? Is even reading one of the OA registers enough?
Although I can't really comprehend why the delay apparently needs to be quite so long, based on my limited understanding of some of the NOA michroarchitecture involved here it makes some sense to me there would be a delay that's also somewhat variable depending on the particular MUX config and I don't know of a trick for getting explicit feedback of completion unfortunately.
I did bring this up briefly, recently in discussion with others more familiar with the HW side of things, but haven't had much feedback on this so far. afaik other OS drivers aren't currently accounting for a need to have a delay here.
For reference, 100ms was picked as I was experimenting with stepping up the delay by orders of magnitude and found 10ms wasn't enough. Potentially I could experiment further with delays between 10 and 100ms, but I suppose it won't make a big difference.

You didn't preserve any other chicken bits during enable_metric_set.
Hmm, good point. I think I'll aim to preserve other bits when setting if that works, just in case something else needs to fiddle with the same register later.
