Suppose in one console I'm playing something using 'mplayer' (a CD), so 'mplayer' wants to set sample rate to 44100Hz. At the same time in another console I'm playing something with 'vlc' (a DVD), so 'vlc' wants to set sample rate to 48000Hz. Obviously, the two are mutually exclusive. My understanding is that I as end user mandate the sample rate, and applications not liking my choice have to use resampling - I guess/hope ALSA will take care of this automatically.
