Thank you for your patch submission.  I haven't yet given it a try.
Looking at the changes you made though, I would guess it attempts to
make the rounding of the audio conversion less audible?  I noticed there
is a buffer which is allocated of size 48000, which I assume is related
to the sampling rate.  Do you think this will also work fine with 44100
for example?

I'm no DSP expert, so if someone has any insight/pointers to information
on this topic I'd be interested.  Best regards,
