Maybe :-) I got the pass-through board a while back, and that board works as expected and there was no problem with ordering etc. What I could see with that was that the TDA19988 was able to initiate a start condition (SDA -> low) but then nothing more happened. Then last week, someone noticed that even though the TDA19988 is driven by 1.8V, it still needs the high signals of the DDC bus to be above 3V, which was unexpected and not catered for by the design. Changing VCC(SYS) of the buffer circuit in place (IP4786, pin 27) to 3.3V fixed the issue and EDID reading works, and this was confirmed earlier today. So, the problem was that the TDA19988 only ever saw "low" DDC signals, and probably aborted when the bus appeared busy. Or something. If anyone cares...
