What would help is the schematics for your board, there are so many 
variations out there that it's hard to generalize

on Baytrail devices the SSP2 is typically connected to AIF1 and SSP0 to 
AIF2. On Baytrail-CR devices the SSP0 is connected to AIF1. SSP1 is 
usually used for BT/FM.
You may want to play with the DAI links to see if you get better luck by 
swapping the codec connections.
