Can you use -I option to get a little more log of the error
$ ./atest -r 16000 -c 8 -p 2048  -D default -d 10 -I 10 capture

Just to know if the wrong frames comes from the previous record session, 
meaning the RX fifo was not cleared correctly,
as if the CCSR_SSI_SOR_RX_CLR bit is not working as we might expect.
(ie. d2a1 .. d2c7 may come from the previous recording, and 78e0 .. may 
be the start of the new recording session)

May be you can read the RX fifo level just avec applying 
CCSR_SSI_SOR_RX_CLR to assert the fifo is really empty ?

In case it is still not empty, we will still have the possibility to 
empty the fifo by ready the samples one by one manually.
