Hm, I think I need to take a closer look here again since I really thought
it'd would Just Work. Hiding more behind the fastboot hack isn't really
what I want either, especially since we want to move from checking the
input mode to checking the pipe config for fastbooting. So having a single
piece which relies on that reconstructed mode would be rather ugly.

Can you please attach the full debug log for this?

Also, could this just be a side effect of the more fancy ->initial_config
logic, i.e. what happens if we disable that one?

Cheers, Daniel
