The "PCM Slave" format, rate, channels and access controls report the
parameters of the playback side of a cable. loopback_check_format()
updates them when a playback starts, but returns early when a capture
is open and its parameters match. The controls then keep the module
defaults, or the parameters of an earlier stream.
A playback that joins an open capture with the same parameters is the
normal case without notify, where it is constrained to the capture's
parameters, and also with notify whenever the player happens to use
them. An application that reads the controls to find the playback's
parameters, for example to reopen the capture side at the right rate
after a restart, then gets the wrong values.
Only skip the capture stop when the parameters match, and update the
controls in every case. A value event is still sent only for a control
whose value changes.
Reproducer:
arecord -D hw:Loopback,1,0 -r 44100 -f S16_LE -c 2 /dev/null &
aplay -D hw:Loopback,0,0 -t raw -r 44100 -f S16_LE -c 2 /dev/zero &
amixer -c Loopback cget "iface=PCM,name='PCM Slave Rate',device=1"
Before: the control reports 48000, the module default.
After: it reports 44100.
