Thanks, but I don't know how the bug can be reproduced at all. I've
tried running the libsamplerate resampler with different kinds of
strange sample rates, but that didn't trigger the bug condition. I've
tested the leftover functionality only by adding a hack to
libsamplerate_resample() that substracts 1 from data.input_frames. That
ensures that src_process() never processes the last frame. The audio has
been smooth when doing that.
