.. It's possible that the audio interface has a fixed (96kHz?) clock and

uses dubious methods of achieving non-even sampling rates like 44.1k. In

that scenario, the software upsampling done by alsa might be better than

the presumed bad method done at hw level.
Any sane soundcard (= not integrated or creative) wouldn't exhibit this

behaviour though. Proper interfaces have proper clocks.
