  I can't confirm this works: crashes for me at 48KHz as well (after a
  long period of inactivity). amaroK using gstreamer output (with
  alsasink) crashes too, but I haven't investigated how to check what
  frequency is using, and how to change it.

  In case it's relevant, my drivers are not the latest:
 
    % cat /proc/asound/version
    Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.9rc2  (Thu Mar 24 10:33:39 2005 UTC).

    % cat /proc/asound/SI7012/codec97#0/ac97#0-0 | grep Hz
    SPDIF Control    : Consumer PCM Category=0x2 Generation=1 Rate=48kHz

  I realize that perhaps upgrading the drivers will solve it, but I
  won't be able to do that in the near future. I thought I'd mention,
  anyway.
