It looks like you missed my comment for v8:

"You should first configure the media device before registering it."

In other words, first create the media entities, and only then do you
register the media device. Otherwise it will come up without any alsa
entities, which are then added. So an application that immediately
opens the media device upon creation will see a topology that is still
in flux.

I'll do some testing of this series on Monday.
