I assume this is a well-known phenomenon, but I have not been able to
figure it out: If I try to use something like mpg123 to play back a
192 kbit/s mp3, the sound quality comes out *awful* -- as though too
many samples were being stuffed through too slow a decoder.  Is this
a limitation of the pcm driver, mpg123, my hardware, or a combination
thereof?

$ cat /dev/sndstat
FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm) Feb 14 2000 21:05:31
Installed devices:
pcm0: <CS461x PCM Audio> at irq 10 (1p/1r channels duplex)
pcm1: <(null)>  (mixer only)
$ dmesg | grep csa
csa0: <Crystal Semiconductor CS4614/4622/4624 Audio accelerator/4280 Audio controller> mem 0xfea00000-0xfeafffff,0xfebfd000-0xfebfdfff irq 10 at device 11.0 on pci0
pcm0: <CS461x PCM Audio> on csa0

Thanks,
Bill
