OK, you win. Dasya and Dahya can be *DESYO- or *DOSYO-; and doulo- <*DOSELO. Maybe Greek was not related to DASYA/DAHYA, and those came from *DASYO-. I know it's arbitrary, I'm just trying to find a connexion. Maybe *daso- came through Thraco-Illyric or Albanese. 
But I think the root of -DA-ON is *DAS- or *DAH-. Egyptian? Semitic? Caucasian? Sumerian? Berberic?

But how do you get -da:o:m from *dos-o:m (the *o is confirmed by doulos), even if we could justify *doso- itself (as opposed to *dos-elo- and *dos-jo-)?

What about *Potei Dasom "Master of Foreign People", cf. Sans. DASYA, Avestic
DAHYA "foreign people", Greek doulos <*DOHELOS<*Doselos "slave". If Poseidon
was equated to Seth, Seth was a "god of foreign people".
