Hi list,
I've got an athlon64 processor running on 32 bit debian unstable
distribution. The motherboard is a via8237 based Abit AV8, with a
Realtek ALC65(8?) sound chip as I understand.
I only use the audiochip to push pcm via spdif to my amplifier. And
everything used to work fine (i.e. different sampling frequencies)
previously before I did a 'apt-get dist-upgrade' a few days ago (the
first one in about half a year). And the following is what's happening
currently when playing a 44.1 kHz track taken from a CD:
bash:# time mplayer -ao alsa:device=spdif audiodump.wav

Let's do a simple calculation: the length of the song (according to the
cd cover) is 4:18.
(4*60 + 18) * 41.1 / 48 ~= 237 -> 3:57
It's pretty obvious from the mplayer case, that somewhere the stream is
interpreted as 48kHZ.
The odd thing is, that this does not seem to be a driver issue, since
I'm running the same kernel (custom built 2.6.17) as before, when
everything was still working. My userspace alsa version as of now is 1.0.13:

ALSA is the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture.
Tag: devel::library, role::sw:shlib, works-with::audio
I've attached the contents of 'aplay -l' and 'aplay -L' to this mail,
and I kindly ask if one of you guys could help me out.
Thanks, Juhis
