Roman,
   Assuming I'm understanding correctly, in this case jack could and
should only be run at 48K. Jack is synchronized to the hardware, not
to any specific sound file or application data rate, so that it can
always receive and provide audio. Jack's first job is to make the
hardware happy and that's how it does it.

   Alsa does provide resampling. I'm not sure how to turn it on but I
suspect it's done through dmix or some other plugin structure. The
application can then source 44.1K samples/second and the plugin does
the resampling to 48K samples/second keeping the hardware happy.

Hope this helps,
Mark
