I ordered a new USB DAC (Emotiva XDA-2). I just received the unit and
hooked it up to my raspberry pi. I started to play some normal (44.1K)
mp3 and m4a tracks and noticed that the display on the USB DAC is
reading 48K. The sound output has slight distortion and pop/cracking
noise. Here is the output of the squeezelite debug with decode and
output enabled:

The XDA-2 is a 24/192K DAC. Could the 48K sample rate cause the
distortion? How can I get squeezelite to output the correct sampel rate
into the DAC?
