Thanks for the hint. With a little help from the archive I've managed to=20
find a way to resample the sounds to 44.1kHz.

In my .asoundrc file :

pcm.!default {
        type plug
        slave {
                pcm "hw:0,0"
                rate 44100
        }
}

It overrides the default PCM device parameters.

Now I can play 48kHz sounds with aplay or xmms. MPlayer seems to ignore=20
it, I can resample with the -af switch.

Thanks again !
