Correct, I can set bit clock to 64*lrclk, 48*lrclk, 128*lrclk, 17*lrclk,
and 18*lrclk. The audio folks here think that it is normal to send more
than required bit clocks, data is sent first so just ignore the rest.
It would appear that the mcbsp doesn't really use the lrclk (I think
called FSX), it just uses a positive transition to start the bit
shifting for all the requested bits. The falling edge does not start the
right channel, the shifter keeps going until all requested l/r counts
have been sent.
Or maybe something in the mcbsp has not been set up correctly?

I do, thanks. I am truly amazed that I was able to follow your
instructions and get it to work first time. You must really know your
alsa machine implementation.
The problem is that now I cannot run 44.1Khz audio, I get underruns. I
am guessing that software is expanding the samples from 16 bits to 32?
Without your hack 44.1Khz audio works fine (but only audible in the
first channel).

I talk to Peter every day. He brought up the codec, I am trying to use
the Beagleboardxm as a generic Linux platform for new codec bringups and
for following kernel and alsa cutting edge software.
