I would play some music records flac coded at
24bit/88kHz.
The pc audio player (xmms) drives a pci soundcard (Chaintech AV-710)
whose spdf output drives a Behringer SRC2496 configured as DA just to
drive a stereo amplifier.
The sound I hear is good, but the DA locks at 48kHz sample rate,
insted of 88.2.
I was not able to "induce" my Mandriva 2008 distribution to output an
88kHz digital stream.
What I'm lookig for is to find a reference to understand the
complexity (at least for me) of linux audio, and be able to get rid
of the above problem.
Hope.
Just a guess...
Your card uses a ICE1712 or 1724 chips I think, for those dmix is
enabled by default on the "default" device. And dmix has 48kHz
hardcoded internally.
So you might want to output to "hw:0" directly, not "default".
