By the way, a little work with the pocket calculator shows that
48/44.1 would be a pitch change of about 1.5 semitones.  More than
"slightly higher" if you have any kind of musical ear.

48/44.1 = 2^0.1223  pitch ratio as a power of two
0.1223 * 12 = 1.467  one semitone is a pitch ratio of the twelfth root of two
