Unfortunately your original report didn't make it to lore.kernel.org, and probably also not to the list, due to the large audio attachment. For the newly CCed people, the issue is about consistent dropouts during audio playback using an in-house application, introduced by adding cpuidle support to _both_ the big and LITTLE cores. Thanks!
