Thank you for responding. I have read in the OSS documentation for the driver that the hardware is wired to 48000Hz and cannot perform the sample rate conversion. I am probably getting that part wrong, and certainly I don't quite understand it. If someone can better explain the problem I would be most appreciative.
Regarding sound output at 48kHz with xmms and the crossfade plugin, I haven't tried that, but thank you for the suggestion. That solution will probably be fine for my existing mp3's. My chief interest right now is video capture with the V4L interface. I have a bttv card and use it as a digital VCR. This worked fine with the OSS drivers on a soundblaster AWE32, but of course the new motherboard lacks ISA slots so I'm trying to get the AC97 sound to work before I plunk down more money a separate sound card. Perhaps if I better understand the nature of the problem, and whether drivers can solve it (or only user-space software, as in the xmms/crossfade kludge), I can better decide which direction to go. Again, if anyone can better explain this problem to me, I would be most appreciative. I am more than willing to work with someone to try to solve it, even if only in at testing capacity. On the other hand, if the AC97 sound is hopeless under Linux, knowing that would also help me out. Thanks again.
