I noticed this error on my Orco device used for tests many moons ago, 
but I could never find out what led to this error case, it wasn't 
deterministic and didn't impact the audio quality. All I could do is 
rate_limit it... If we have an A vs. B situation it'd be really helpful 
to diagnose further.

Is there really a causality between the changes from Hans and this PLL 
unlock error? Are you 100% sure this was not present in the previous 
install you used (4.18.14 as mentioned earlier in the thread)?

Thanks
