Users of these distributions would then have to be fairly familiar with alsa to know they could improve sound by recompiling alsa-lib against the speex libraries, but given that it's (also) dirt cheap soundcards that need the resampling, their users aren't too likely to _be_ fairly familiar. They'd just observe (still) that their sound is "much better on windows".
Oh, I meant using a copy of the pph code in the mean time, not the current linear interpolation resampler.
If the standard code is as lousy as I've read in this thread, keeping it as default is probably not the best thing.
It's worse than you think :-) Try playing an 8 kHz file to a soundcard that only does 44.1/48. It's just horrible.
