Okay, i made a video, then tested stuff with the setup i presented and noticed that theres weird glitches and the clocks and streams are going async. I found out that you actually have to downgrade the firmware to 4.8. That was the last version of the software that worked with all the implementations on linux.
I'm now trying to get ffado running with pipewire and i am having first little successes after the firmware downgrade. Unfortunately the ffado pipewire module feels less than beta. Alsa / pipewire also does work, but the roundtrip through my comp takes like 111ms. That's not a huge issue, but i think there is a setup that goes faster. I'll have to experiment more. Specifically there is a way of installing jack underneath Pipewire and bridging both. So you could run all multimedia using pulse and Pipewire but it's not connected to alsa , but instead to ffado and jack.
Downgrade of the firmware is just installing the old console and driver in version 4.8, starting the console and updating the firmware in the usual spot in the about screen. It will tell you that it upgrades to the current latest version, which in case of the software is just 4.8. That's easily done on the windows box, with a bit of luck i could find a old version of the windows software bundle in 4.8. Specifically searching for the old file name helped.
