Thanks.

Yup, makes sense.  Do your test logs include the following message?

        sid-io-audio: flushing buffers on tx close

That would indicate that insufficient polling was performed to fully
drain the output buffer.  While the "tx-pending" pin/attribute is
non-zero, the driver .exp file should tickle the component's "poll"
pin periodically, before finally turning off "tx-mode".

Unfortunately, I don't have any sound cards of small enough tx
capacity to test this the easiest possible way. :-)
