interestingly, ADAT devices do the opposite to get to SR's above 48kHZ:

        - hardware runs as N * 48 kHz channels
        - data is multiplexed across 2 channels at once
        - user sees N/2 channels at 96kHz

this is not done with ALSA plugins, but in the driver.

note that JACK wants if possible to sit close to the h/w, so an ALSA
plugin is not ideal. JACK uses mmap to read/write data from/to the
device, so the work of an ALSA plugin is hard ...
