alsa: optionally disable resampling and others
Added mpd.conf options for disabling automatic resamling, sample format and channel conversion. This way, users may choose to override ALSA's automatic resampling, and use libsamplerate instead.

+.B auto_resample <yes or no>
+Setting this to "no" disables ALSA's software resampling, if the

This sets the length of the hardware sample buffer in microseconds. Increasing
it may help to reduce or eliminate skipping on certain setups. Most users do
