Hi Rene,
I changed alsa.conf so that dmix does 44.1kHz and tried, without dmix
44.1 and 48kHz files sound 'awesome' but with dmix some clicks appear
at both the rates. Going ahead, I recorded a 8Khz mono sound using my
driver and played it back without dmix, it plays without any clicks,
but use dmix and clicks appear. So basically,
clicks appear at all the sample rates with dmix and without it I could
play all the sample rate files well since my hw supports hw
upsampling.
