MCP = Multimedia Communication Port.  It is designed to work with the
UCB1200 and UCB1300 codec devices, which have two parts to them: a
telecom / pots interface and an audio interface.

The host side needs to be programmed with the appropriate sample rate -
it's the host side which controls the sample rate not the codec.
