I noticed another big problem in my application relating to locking the
system at 48 KHz in the background. If I set SPDIF to 44.1KHz on some
playback software (Xine for example) between tracks the system briefly
switches back to 48 KHz. This causes an audible pop as the external DAC
tries to keep up with the rate change. I have not found a way to lock the
system at a different rate (44100 for example) so this doesn't happen
between tracks. This behavior is common to both the ICE1724 and the VT1708
drivers.

Wow, fantastic. I will give this patch a try. I'll have to rebuild my
kernel to disable the in-kernel ALSA code and build the ALSA module
separately from the latest sources, but if this patch fixes things, that
would be worth the effort. I'll get back to you. Thanks.
