What is your fascination with doing stuff outside the specifications?
The HDMI spec is quite clear:

"An HDMI Source is permitted to transmit L-PCM audio data at sample rates
of 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, 176.4kHz or 192kHz."

It goes on to say:

"An HDMI Sink may accept L-PCM audio at sample rates of 32kHz, 44.1kHz,
48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, 176.4kHz or 192kHz, and should indicate these
capabilities in the E-EDID data structure."

That doesn't say that 8kHz, 22.05kHz etc are valid sample rates for
HDMI.  It may work for some devices but it's non-standard.
