Hi Julien

In process of accomplish my task with EQ I discover a problem playing
music with ecasound.

If I execute: ecasound -i test.wav -o
jack_multi,system:playback_1,system:playback_2
then I get this error:
"ERROR:  Connecting chainsetup failed: "All audio objects must have a common
... sampling rate; sampling rate of audio object "jack_multi" differs from
... engine rate (48000 <-> 44100); unable to continue."
"
I run jack like this: /usr/bin/jackd -P 85 -d alsa -P hw:2,0 -n 3 -p 256

(test.wav format is 16,2,44100)

Regards
Stefan
