Hi, List

On the back of Ronald Klop's comments (thanks!), I went and got myself =
an
RPI 4 and it turns out all that was need was adding the right dtb
reference and it all works (seemingly) fine (incremental patch =
attached).

One of the potential projects highlighted in the latest call for =
proposals
was exactly to get hdmi audio output in 64 bit Pis, viz. the 400-s. If
anyone who voted for that reads this list, wd be nice to get some input =
on
the patches.

Best,
Marco
