The tunnel sample rate from the client to the server is determined at
the time you load module-tunnel-sink. The rate is based on what you
configured with the module arguments, or if you didn't configure
anything, then it's the default rate that is configured in the client
machine's daemon.conf.

If the tunnel rate is 44.1 kHz, and you play a 48 kHz stream to the
tunnel sink, resampling will happen on the client machine.
