Opus files don't have a sampling rate anymore; the internal
representation is most efficiently decoded to 48kHz.

The metadata records the original sampling rate which make it possible
to decode to a file with exactly as many samples as the original; but
there would be no reason to do that when decoding for playback (for
example.)
