Since both of those are multiples of 48, resampling is trivial. At worst
every second or fourth sample is played. What is much more likely is
44100/48000 resampling. 
However laptop speakers HAVE to sound tinny. They are far too small to
produce any sounds below about 500Hz. There is a reason why good speakers
are huge.
