I am still waiting for feedback from design. They were trying to confirm
my observations. Unfortunately, it is taking some time. I will ping them
again.

Yes that would be good. I could drop the 4460 specific changes for now
and make 4460 work in the same way as 4430 (using CTI) for the time
being and see if we can get these in. However, I recall that was not
working for you, but it was working fine for me.

Ok.

Hmmm ... so that does not explain the observation that you made with 4460.
