You need to ask your firmware guys, what are they expecting the these fields.
Some decoder implementations can be different. But i would expect the audio to
be broken, bad quality if that is the case.

But the speed of playback can be due to different decoder output rate and
different sampling rate configured. You are telling decoder 48Khz as CPM sample
rate, is that what decoder is understanding and conversion to decoder values
correct. Then you should check if the rendering to DAC is at 48KHz or not.
