My solutions were: 1) Use a different soundcard that supported the requested sample rate. 2) Use the ALSA sound system instead of the OSS system, which I think is now standard on Ubuntu and most other 2.6 Linuxes. I had been sticking with OSS for a while because I found the commercial (paid) OSS system to be very stable on the old SuSE distro I was running. I now use Ubuntu and the ALSA system will re-sample whatever audio comes in from whatever soundcard to give the software what it asked for. Works well. -Lance -- J.
