custom audio card on beaglebone

[jo]

Hi everyone,

I am currently trying to get a simple audio I2S DAC board 
(https://polyvection.com/shop/plaindac/) to work on a beaglebone green 
wireless. The components is a PCM5121, a popular one that has an 
existing driver.

so far,
- I have a custom compiled kernel with the apropriate driver compiled
$ grep PCM512 .config
CONFIG_SND_SOC_PCM512x=m
CONFIG_SND_SOC_PCM512x_I2C=m


- I can boot with a custom device tree including my definition of the 
board as an "asoc-simple-card" and it get recognise without error on boot.

root at beaglebone:~# dmesg |grep sound
[   28.730678] asoc-simple-card sound: pcm512x-hifi <-> 48038000.mcasp 
mapping ok
root at beaglebone:~# lsmod |grep pcm512
snd_soc_pcm512x_i2c     2782  1
snd_soc_pcm512x        24341  1 snd_soc_pcm512x_i2c
snd_soc_core          192029  5 
snd_soc_pcm512x,snd_soc_davinci_mcasp,snd_soc_edma,snd_soc_omap,snd_soc_simple_card
snd_pcm               103172  6 
snd_soc_pcm512x,snd_soc_davinci_mcasp,snd_soc_core,snd_soc_omap,snd_pcm_dmaengine


- I can open the device with alsamixer, and can confirm the sound is on 100%

Howewer, I still can't get any sound of the device.

Does someone has experience in regards to asoc audio device and cant 
give me some thought on easy to miss things ?
I am still trying to figure out if I have omitted something on the 
device tree, or if I need to configure something more on the OS (alsa, 
pulseaudio ?)...

I have attached my device tree, if someone feel like giving a look at 
it. (my addition from the original one comes after line 73).
Also some output that may give you more info that they are giving to me:
