HD Audio controller app called "Intel Audio Studio 2.0"
(or maybe "Intel Audio Studio Pro")
developed in conjunction with a company called Sonic Focus.
This app apparently **does** support 44.1 kHz (and 96 kHz)
S/PDIF output, if the photo at the bottom of
http://www.sudhian.com/index.php?/articles/show/Intel_High_Definition_Audio/drivers
is any indication.According to

----------------------------------------
Intel Audio Studio will be codec-agnostic, meaning it
can work with any vendor's codec. One area where most
codec makers have fallen short is in providing useful
software front-ends for tweaking audio. One notable
exception has been Analog Devices' SoundMAX. Intel's
925-based motherboards are going to ship with the
C-Media CMI9880 codec, whereas the 915-based motherboards
will be using a Realtek solution. Both motherboards
will ship with Intel Audio Studio.
----------------------------------------It only comes bundled with Intel motherboards. I wonder
if it could be installed on a non-Intel motherboard
with an Intel 975X chipset and Realtek ALC882M codec.
