Public bug reported:

I suggest changing the default resample-method to speex-float-10,
instead of speex-float-1, which is the current default now, in
/etc/pulse/daemon.conf.

It would look like this in daemon.conf:
resample-method = speex-float-10

I have always done that since at least 12.04 LTS. I was not satisfied
with the sound quality in Ubuntu compared to Windows, so I changed the
resample-method.

In my day-to-day usage, it gives better sound quality without
sacrificing CPU power.

I have not tried other resample methods. Maybe there are better options
I don't know about.
