Interesting idea! I did know the rtcwake command only for measuring
suspend current but I wasn't aware that it also works for power-off/on.

Yes, it is probably not possible to query the twl4030 through MLO/U-Boot/kernel
boot to find out if it was started by button or event.
So this should be solved in user-space.
Maybe the best thing is to store the wakeup time in some file and check
if it was passed. I.e. no alarm if you manually turn on before.

We should probably put that into some script running during init/boot.
Maybe we can simply set the modification time of some file to the future
alarm time and then do a simple
touch /tmp/rtcwake
if [ /tmp/rtcwake -nt /root/rtcwake ]
then # alarm time has been passed
rm /root/rtcwake
aplay alarm
fi
and triggering the alarm is like:
/root/wwan-off || exit 1
touch -t [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS]] /root/rtcwake
rtcwake -m off -t time
Another option would be to mix this with cron, i.e. find out
when the next cron event is to be scheduled and make the device
boot 1 minute before. Then a simple
echo "aplay sound" | at -t time
schedule_rtcwake_from_crontab
poweroff
would suffice.
