The communications is simply to tell the firmware with
AUDIO_SET_ATTRIBUTES which stream type (e.g. PCM, AC3, DTS,
Mpeg Audio) is used for replaying. For PCM the sampling
rate is also provided by the type audio_attributes_t.
The data is then put parts of 2048 bytes through the DEBI
port. The rest is done by the new firmware part.
