Yes, I do! Are you saying that the distortions of the
higher frequencies in ogg files encoded from 44.1 kHz
wav files are because of the soundcard. I find the
same distortions on both my desktop machine (with the
SB live card) and my laptop (with "Crystal SoundFusion
CS4281 WDM audio"). Resampling the wav's from 44.1 to
48 kHz before encoding seems to be the only way to get
rid of the distortions.
