And why did the developers put sample rate control into 'alsamixer' for M-Audio Revolution 7.1 ? I haven't yet tried OpenWengo with ALC883 - with M-Audio Revolution 7.1 I had to manually changed sample rate to 32000 because otherwise OpenWengo changed voice pitch to become unnaturally high and there was stutter. On the other hand, Skype needs sample rate of 44100. So, I would rather prefer to have a quick and direct way to change sample rate.
