We're not on pulseaudio ... likely pulseaudio checks for ak4613 .

meta-rcar-gen3-adas/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-renesas/0112-ARM64-dts-renesas-ulcb-Make-AK4613-sound-device-name.patch says:
So there are probably good reasons to keep the change due to pulseaudio. AGL will have to live with that diff.

There's no confusion here.
Status is as follows:
for ebisu (and probably salvator), sound car name in asound.state must be 'rcarsound' (cogent layer is not used)
for H3/M3+KF, the sound card name must be 'ak4613'
So #24572 was there to enable dunfell w/o KF, as you stated.
And #24760 reverts #24572, as we now have the Cogent layer as we used to before migration.
What you propose is to cancel #24760 and do the equivalent in meta-agl-bsp/meta-rcar-gen3-adas, to only enable the fix only when Cogent layer is pulled. I'm fine with that but this is a separate issue. Could we see that in a second step and in a separate jira issue?

Now you confuse me:
https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/c/AGL/meta-agl/+/24572 was to enable dunfell w/o KF:
--> state.rcarsound
So to enable the variants with the Kingfisher (aka [h3|m3]ulcb-kf in aglsetup),
https://gerrit.automotivelinux.org/gerrit/c/AGL/meta-agl/+/24760 will rename all boards but the ebisu .
--> state.ak4613
To me it makes no sense to put this (as a revert) into meta-agl-bsp/meta-rcar-gen3/recipes-bsp/alsa-state/alsa-state.bbappend but instead it should be in
meta-agl-bsp/meta-rcar-gen3*-adas*/recipes-bsp/alsa-state/alsa-state.bbappend
and thus just apply only whenever the cogent layer is enabled.
YES it would be better to fix the root cause, but do you really wanna dig through > 480 patches ?
See: https://github.com/CogentEmbedded/meta-rcar/tree/dunfell-Yocto-v3.21.0/meta-rcar-gen3-adas/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-renesas
Answer is no, b/c we don't have the time to redo that over-and-over again. Just my 0,02€.
