The sama5d3xek/wm9804 combo, as implemented in the kernel, has the
ssc dai in slave mode, and therefore don't need to fiddle with any
ssc dai dividers (atmel_9804.c :atmel_asoc_wm9804_hw_params() only
sets things in the wm9804 codec dai driver and leaves the ssc dai to itself). 

Instead, try the above code on your code with the ssc dai in master mode
that you pointed at previously.

https://github.com/Android4SAM/linux-at91/commit/33db8ebd3e75632c482dda271340f4d2adcfd320

If that happens to not hit -EBUSY (which it might not, since the wm9804 codec
will only allow stereo, so the SNDCTL_DSP_CHANNELS ioctl might not need
to make any change for any ssc divider) add code to also set a non-default
sample rate, e.g.:

speed = 22050;
if (ioctl(fd, SNDCTL_DSP_SPEED, &speed) == -1) {
	perror("SNDCTL_DSP_SPEED");
	return 1;
}

Cheers,
Peter
