First off, I booted Win98, and found that Windows was using the ES1879 driver. Sound is perfect under Windows. (Again, Linux recognizes it as a ES1688. A quick grep of the driver didn't reveal any ES1879 code that should have been triggered.)
Now, for frequency testing...On my desktop machine (which has an es1370), changing frequencies just changes the quality of the output sound - tempo & pitch all sound correct, as it should. On the VAIO, however, there are at least two modes: a bit slow (high frequency) and quite fast (alvin the chipmunk style, low frequency). 22050 and 44100 seem to give the slow playback mode, and 16000, 11025, 8000, and 4000 give chipmunk sounds. I can't tell if the fast playback ones are the same tempo, but they seem close (roughly twice as fast, I think). I used "tracker -frequency" and "mpg123 [-1,-2,-4]" to do these tests, BTW.
Guess the problem is a bit more complicated...oh well!
