Here I am running system-config-soundcard with system sound disabled in
controlcenter. I can fix the 44.1khz problem if I enable sound in
controlcenter, but then artsd goes nuts.
BTW: I don't have alsaconfig installed on my machine, not that I can
find. Google archives talk about it. I looked in the changelog and it
appears to have been removed from later alsa versions. Am I correct on
this ?
