Alsa will resample everything if the what the sound card supports is not what is delivered by the source (with if I understand correctly rather poor -- linear interpolation-- resampline, although better resampling is, or maybe already has, being implimented. Try the hw plugin to force the card not to use software resampling. > > Additionally, my previous issue with being unable to select a S/PDIF > input source with this card is still unresolved.
