The biggest advantage of Linux is flexibility.
Don't like a particular solution, choose another.
Something not quite configured the way you want? Fix it.
Nothing meets your needs? Write your own.
I was hoping my post could be useful to a newbie to Linux listening to the standard players on a vanilla install. In my case, I left the default sampling rate to 44.1kHz but upped the bit depth to 32 bit floating. Distinct improvement, particularly when listening to 24-bit audio.
All pulseaudio really needs is a way to dynamically change the master rate just like Windows and MacOS. I hope that feature will be implemented soon, the developers say it's on their list of things to do.
