Re: [RFC/RFT v2 0/4] ALSA: hda - hdmi: ATI/AMD multi-channel and HBR support

Anssi,

Your patch has been applied on 3.11.3

This is working with Codec 0x1002aa01 revisions 0x100300 (Rev ID 3)
except for a small detail. I cannot tell if it is a regression from v1
of the patch or it was there and I did not noticed when I tested.

Rear left and rear right channels are flipped.

No noticeable difference than when it is run without the AES0 param

Both works. No garbage is heard from neither of them. maybe maybe AES04
starts playing few ms earlier but if there is a difference, it is
extremely subtle.
