I have a set of digital speakers and use the SPDIF out for everything possible. (The speakers will fall back to analog if there is no digital signal present.) 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50) For a long time (through 1.0.0rc1) I had been using plug:spdif as my audio device and aplay had no problems playing 22,050 Hz WAV files: aplay -D plug:spdif .wav But with 1.0.1 my speakers started playing 22,050 Hz WAV files at 48,000 Hz. After reading the following thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg10448.html I added the following line to my /etc/modules.conf: options snd-via82xx dxs_support=3 and plug:spdif is working again. One message says "By default snd-via82xx uses dxs_support=3 (except for certain known motherboards)." Either my motherboard should become unknown or this feature is not working correctly.
