    This is provoked when the ASoC front end is open along with its backend,
    (which causes the backend to have a runtime assigned to it) and then the
    SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_INFO is requested for the (visible) backend device.
    
    Resolve this by ensuring that ASoC internal backend devices are not
    visible to userspace, just as the commentry for snd_pcm_new_internal()
    says it should be.
