Mike,
If you run ‚aplay -l‘ what devices do you see?
I believe the ‚Wolfson Cirrus Logic New (for Kernel 4.4+)‘ still replaces the stock kernel with a patched one, based on the older driver.
I usually install this to enable the Wolfson options, then update to the latest kernel and then update the use case scripts in /opt/max2play/wolfson (IIRC).
You may also need to do the /boot/config.txt changes, along with the /etc/modprobe.d/cirrus.conf changes.
Andy.
