I understand a session can support multiple sinks, but I don't expect
to mix up formatted and unformatted trace (see sinks_compatible()).

For the mentioned fallback, I am also struggling to establish a case.
Even AUX_OUTPUT_HW_ID records are absent randomly, I don't think this
impacts the queue's format initalization, no?
