IIRC, a DD amp will expect a 48kHz sample rate. Any other rate won't play at 
the correct speed. Some hardware will resample the signal for you 
automatically. My CMI8738 resamples *some* rates. Other hardware will have 
drivers that perform the resampling. Some will happily pass the wrong rate 
and it will sound odd. My brother's ALC650 passed 44.1kHz audio without 
resampling which sounded slightly sped up.

The -srate option in Mplayer will solve all of these problems.
