Endless spam in dmesg: ASoC error (-19): at snd_soc_dai_prepare() on i2s-hifi

["Diederik de Haas" <diederik@cknow-tech.com>]

Hi,

On several of my Rockchip based devices I get ASoC errors, where the one
from the subject occurs the most, but there are others as well.
While it should ofc be reported when an error occurs, the volume was
bad, then really bad and now it's just absurd:

root@rock5b:~# dmesg | grep -c "ASoC error (-19): at snd_soc_dai_prepare"
983

If 'dmesg' buffer can hold 1000 lines, then I have 17 of these as well:
hdmi-audio-codec hdmi-audio-codec.8.auto: HDMI: Unknown ELD version 0

This means that after just a few minutes, 'dmesg' has now become utterly
useless as it ONLY contains these errors/lines.

Booting into older kernels didn't seem to have an effect. If it had, I
could start to bisect it. I have no idea where it comes from.
So now I have removed pipewire ... and everything that depends on it ...
of which 'mpv' is the most important to me.
Now those errors are actually gone. And dmesg actually useful again.

So I guess it's triggered by (a change in) pipewire, but still the
kernel should not be generating endless copies of the same error. Once
or twice should be enough.

Can something be done about this?

Cheers,
