replace all occurrences of bitrate with sample rate. It seems myth
doesn't actually change the sample rate even though it allows you to
select a different one. I'm guessing muting (i.e. turn off) "multi
track rate locking" in alsamixer will fix all my problems.

Ok, I've pretty much narrowed down my problems with clock
discrepancies to the audio bitrate that my audio card is set to. I
have a Chaintech AV710 (uses Via Envy24HT) which seems to have
problems playing at 48KHz. I'm not sure if the problem is with the
card or my receiver, but there's a lot of clicking and such at 48KHz.
I've tried using .asoundrc files that are supposed to convert signals
at all frequencies to the frequency set in alsamixer (currently
44100), modifying them to my device indexes. When I use dmix it seems
to convert the signal to the correct frequency but when I don't it
doesn't. What audio rates are valid for pvr-350s and pvr-150mces?
Attached is my .asoundrc if anyone is interested. Here's what aplay
