If pulseaudio is involved, check these settings in /etc/daemon.conf

default-sample-rate
alternate-sample-rate

The default settings, I believe were 44100 and 48000 respectively and 
this caused certain applications (skype, in particular) to have their 
signals downsampled from 48k -> 44k. Was an interesting affect during 
skype conversations but ultimately got annoying so I changed both 
settings above to the same value (48000) and all is well.
