Hi,
I made more testing on my OMAP1510 and found out that I could get your 
example usage working without my patch, but only if started like this:

	arecord -D hw:0,0 -f S16_LE|aplay -D hw:0,0

If I start the same with "-D hw:0,0" omitted from aplay, it doesn't work 
any longer, waiting forever. It definitelly doesn't work if I start 
capture and playback one after another, no matter which one goes first 
(record while playing or play while recording). So it looks like 
starting both streams simultaneously can do the job, but a short delay 
breaks it.

With my patch, it seems to work fine for me in all cases.

Jarkko, have you ever tried it on your OMAP2/3 with parallel playback 
and capture started one after another, not simultaneously?

Arun, can your snd-soc-osk9512 work on OMAP1610 in full duplex mode 
without any limitations?

If the problem appears to be OMAP1510 or AMS_DELTA specific, I can add a 
check for a machine or cpu type to avoid braking unaffected machines.

Thanks,
Janusz
