At the moment it's not because recent versions of ALSA resample to 48k by
default anyway.
The SRC we use is *much* nicer than the linear interpolation that ALSA
inflicts.

Besides, many cards don't do 44.1k - ideally we'd know what the card
supports before we open it,
but it's a bit messy to implement and the SRC gives a SNR of 97dB at 97% bw
anyway. I really didn't
want to add any additional config, but happy to consider another way of
doing it..
