I have an HB2 that's incorporated in a platform that includes an
audio processor (tda7419) and external amplifier (tda7850) attached to
the HB2 headphone out. The tda7419 also handles two additional non-Linux
audio source inputs, FWIW. The tda7419 and tda7850 are supported as
ASoC component drivers. However, they must be added to a card as
auxiliary devices to be instantiated and have their controls exposed
to userspace. In addition, once added as an aux device, the tda7419
muxes and switches can participate in DAPM properly. Using
simple-audio-card enables this option, without giving up any of the
current functionality when using imx-audio-sgtl5000.

I was a little fixated on the HB2 platform that I'm working on. It's
equally applicable to HB so I can add the same change there.
