So I tried it myself and here are the changes I did:

Hi Fabio,

and did that work for you?
In my DTS file I made a few more changes, see below.

No, as explained in my earlier e-mail the system hangs after running aplay.

However, the same hang happens with NXP kernel.

Have you tried setting bit20 of GPR1 register?

Which NXP kernel did you use that provides audio functionality on mx6ul-evk?

I have not tried setting the bit 20 of the GPR1 register. How would that 
be set?

Both the 3.x and 4.1 work for me. However you need to set the headphone 
volume to non-zero and especially the pcm output mixer (unmute),
otherwise the audio path is not routed through and the codec is switched 
off due to power saving (and generates no bclk and lrclk).
This confused me as well, but after setting the mixer playback stasrts 
working with the Freescale kernel.

If you have memtool installed in your rootfs:

./memtool -32 20E4004=0F560005

You can do this via bootloader prompt or via devmem2 in the Linux prompt.

Without this MCLK will not be out.

I was putting the volume to a suitable value, but didn't touch PCM output mixer.

I see in alsamixer: "PCM Playback -6dB [Off]", but it does not allow
me to change this setting though.

Thanks, I'll check that out.

The controls to unmute are:

Left Output Mixer PCM [Off]
Right Output Mixer PCM [Off]

I don't know why, but alsamixer does not allow me to unmute thes options.

Should sound/soc/codecs/wm8960.c be changed so that thes options are
turned on by default?

Ok, managed to unmute these options in alsamixer and now I get audio
with NXP 3.14 kernel.

Will try with mainline now.

Thanks for your hint!
