Well, that would explain a few things, as I have to adjust the rate
manually through Alsamixer, and 44.1 and 48khz are the only options this
card supports. It's the same deal on the Windows side, though, and I can
still play back 22.05khz stuff back with no issues. It's possible that
the factory drivers from Emu are doing the SRC on the fly in the
background when needed.

I'm using ALSA 1.0.16 Stable, compiled myself from sources.
