Would it be right to say that y isn't a buffer consonant at all - but instead the i mutates to a y to prevent two consecutive vowels?
ev-de-iken - while at home
evdeyken

evdeyken |
evde iken is also ok,
evde iken= evdeyken
like:
Ahmet ile sinemaya gittik= Ahmet'le sinemaya gittik
(We went to the cinema with Ahmet)
Ankara'dan araba ile geldi= Ankara'dan arabayla geldi
(He came fromAnkara by car)
Biz dışarda iken eve hırsız girmiş = Biz dışardayken eve hırsız girmiş
(when we were outside, a thief has been at home)
