[BUG] [MTL] Playback clips captured from mock RTC AEC device is double speeded

[yongzhi1]

Describe the bug

Playback the file captured from "device 27: DMIC0 RTC AEC" with CONFIG_GOOGLE_RTC_AUDIO_PROCESSING_MOCK=y, and hear the speed is doubled.

To Reproduce

Start spk playback:

aplay -Dhw:0,1 -c2 -r48000 -fS16_LE /home/LR.wav -vv

Start spk feedback capture:

arecord -Dhw:0,29 /tmp/tmp.wav -c2 -r48000 -fs32_le -vv

Start AEC capture:

arecord -Dhw:0,27 /tmp/mock_aec.wav -c4 -r48000 -fs32_le -vv -d20

@yongzhi1 can you confirm if its SPK feedback or AEC that is double speed or both ?
@mwasko @abonislawski fyi.

[yongzhi1]

Hi, @lgirdwood , to confirm, both spk playback and EchoRef ( spk loopback for capture) work normally w/o speed or glitch issue, thanks!

[abonislawski]

Please verify on newest chromeos, I cannot reproduce on main and 005

hi Adrian,
i can repro the issue still on mtl-005

Looks like the problem is caused by wrong host-copier.27.capture output format configuration. It is configured to receive 2-channel audio on source and output 4-channel audio to host. See dmesg log:

Current version of copier does not support remapping of channels. So, basically, host-copier.27.capture just copy its input data to output DMA buffer and so host receives 2 times less data when expected.

Is it a mistake that host-copier.27.capture is configured with 4-channel output instead of 2? Or is this intentional and for some reason 4 channels are required?

[lgirdwood]

@RDharageswari I'm assuming the 4 channel output is not needed by userspace here ?

@yongzhi1 @RDharageswari Do you still see this issue with #8101

[yongzhi1]

Hi, @ranj063 with #8101 and the mock module, the speed issue is still there when 4xch is enabled. The speed issue is not reproducible with 2xch DMIC (i.e. sof-mtl-max98357a-rt5682-ssp2-ssp0-2ch-pdm1). Thanks @serhiy-katsyuba-intel for the hint!!

[ranj063]

@serhiy-katsyuba-intel the current aec pipeline in topology is missing support for 4ch capture. I am working with @yongzhi1 to fix this.
