This explains why you have to set the internal rate to 48000 when using PulseAudio. If Jack and aplay can open the device in the 44100 mode, I don't know why PulseAudio fails to do that. Presumably the device opening sequence is done a bit differently in PulseAudio than e.g. in aplay (I think the setup function calls can be called with different order, and some Alsa drivers behave differently depending on the order). So if you have the motivation, you could study what makes the difference. You could also ask on the alsa-devel mailing list if the driver maintainer could improve the driver so that it would set the internal rate automatically correctly when the device is opened. So if PulseAudio opens the device in the 48000 mode, then the driver should set the internal rate automatically to 48000 Hz. -- Tanu
