Yes, but I don't see a better solution for "auto" rate settings.
Also, it would be probably good to create a control which can "fix" the 
rate to a value (ICE1712 driver already has this feature).

Yes, I return an error when the rate is other than agreed with 
application in the PDAudioCF driver. I think that it's only valid
solution. But if you cannot obtain the rate from hardware, then
it might be problematic.
