This is exactly why configfs is the wrong interface.  If you implement
the AVB device in alsa-lib user space, then you can handle the
reservations, configuration, UDP sockets, etc, in a way transparent to
the aplay program.

Heck, if done properly, your layer could discover the AVB nodes in the
network and present each one as a separate device...
