WS2812 LED not displaying correct colors with I2S driver

Hi,

I'm using WS2812B as a status LED. I don't have any free SPI ports. So my only option is to use I2S. It is displaying just white. I cannot change colors or turn it off. It displays a shade of the color I want with a a lot of white. It's difficult to view the correct color. I have used up all 4 possible serial peripherals so I2S is my only choice. Please let me know if this can be fixed or if there is any other way to control this LED. I have verified the LED with the SPI driver it is working properly. I'm using v2.7.0 toolchain & v2.6.1 SDK.
Here is the overlay and program.

#include <zephyr/dt-bindings/led/led.h>

&pinctrl {
	i2s0_default_alt: i2s0_default_alt {
		group1 {
			psels = <NRF_PSEL(I2S_SCK_M, 0, 20)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(I2S_LRCK_M, 0, 19)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(I2S_SDOUT, 0, 0)>,
				<NRF_PSEL(I2S_SDIN, 0, 21)>;
		};
	};
};

i2s_led: &i2s0 {
	status = "okay";
	pinctrl-0 = <&i2s0_default_alt>;
	pinctrl-names = "default";
};

/ {
	led_strip: ws2812 {
		compatible = "worldsemi,ws2812-i2s";

		i2s-dev = < &i2s_led >;
		chain-length = <1>; /* arbitrary; change at will */
		color-mapping = <LED_COLOR_ID_GREEN
					LED_COLOR_ID_RED
					LED_COLOR_ID_BLUE>;
		out-active-low;
		reset-delay = <120>;
	};

	aliases {
		led-strip = &led_strip;
	};
};
