not a problem

That's a feature that I suggested.
All 11k input rates get upsampled automatically before encoding.
- therefore they always come back out at 22kHz

the reason:
any aliasing distortion that was present in the llK version gets eliminated.

sorry if it's confusing.

It is documented, but I don't know if the reason was described.

Just confusing, or is there something wrong with the sound of it?

btw:
there are a few other cases where the input sample rate gets 
automatically altered  to maximize fidelity (at low encoding rates, 
44k inputs can come out at 22k).
