at best you can dump the pcm status to the error log from your app. to check the rate conversion, comparing the status in /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params would be enough, though. if the hardware uses a different sample rate, surely the rate plugin is working. anyway, if you're using the cvs version of yesterday/today, it must be ok.
