I'm quite certain the sample rate doesn't change during an icecast 
stream. I'm not even sure it's even possible.
The bitrate may, however, change. That's handled by vorbis, so you don't 
have to care.
The sample rate may differ between streams, but then you just make sure 
you re-open the sound card with the new parameters.
