(BTW: in Debian /etc/asound.conf does not even exists... are you sure your distribution is setup to use that file?) Nevertheless, I guess these "static" problem is not related to the resample algorithm you are using - unless the problem is related to insufficient system resources. What CPU do you have? I say this 'cause e.g. with my old laptop (PIIIM 1.2GHz) basically I could not use anything better than the default. Trying just about any other algorithm caused problems such as underruns, skips, errors, etc. Assuming this is not your case, your "static" problem may be due to inappropriate sample rate and/or format of the data sent to the sound card. Are you sure that e.g. you are not trying to feed a 44.1KHz stream to a card which supports only 48KHz ?
